The Game

Five Steps from Home is the fruit of a collaboration among 5 developers who planned to make a level (step) each for a game with a common story.

- Step 1 was made by Xanderwood
- Step 2 was made by BLANKdev
- Step 3 was made by Frozen Well
- Step 5 was made by Marlin

After a crash on an alien planet, the player need to find all the pieces to repair their spaceship and make their way back home.

Level 4 is a short puzzle level where the player will have to navigate across a frozen lake, using ice spikes to thrust themselves around in order to find the missing pieces.

This level was also submitted to the "Very Funky JamMas #1" since its making fell within the time limits and the theme seemed appropriate.

Controls:

- Use WASD to move
- Use ESC to pause/resume/restart/quit
- ESC will also allow you to skip the intro

Recommendations:

The game works and can be fully experienced without incurring in any problems.
Due to the "game-jam"-like nature of the project though you might come in some minor bugs. I apologize in advance in case that should happen.
Trying to purposely break the game might lead to success in doing so.
