Escape from Io

NOTE: I've uploaded a version with sound+music, bug fix and a very small tutorial. You can now find the ZIP for that version. I left the old ZIP as well, but it would be good it you could check the fixed version (mechanics, features or playability were not modified).

Intro

You are a wizard living in Jupiter's satellite Io. Unfortunately, Io is a volcanically active home, and it's about to go haywire, so you need to escape. Don't stop! Escape the planet while saving as many precious magical flowers native to Io as possible.

This is a small procedurally generated platform game created for Juice Jam 2021.

Controls

There is a small tutorial in the fixed version, but basically:

• A and D (or gamepad stick) to run
• W (or gamepad [A]) to jump
• You can double jump in the air
• Use S (or gamepad [B]) to perform a Super Jump.
  • The Super Jump has a cooldown, though. You can check when it's ready by looking at the hud.
• Touch a magical flower to save it!

Other controls:

• M to toggle sounds/music (fixed version)
• ESC to go back and/or pause

HUD

The upper right screen presents:

• A minimap, where you can check your position and the position of nearby magical flowers.
• How many magical flowers you've saved.
• The Super Jump cooldown indicator (progress bar).
• How many meters are remaining to escape.
• How much time you've taken so far.
