Navigator (itch)

Welcome back to the next generation in block puzzle games!

The hit from 2012 that you've never heard of is finally back, now at its new home on itch.io!

[THE DEVELOPMENT OF NAVIGATOR]

Navigator is a fast-paced puzzle game that combines precision platforming and strategic block placement, layered with a fresh, energetic soundtrack and a unique flavor.

Test your ability by controlling both your Block Cannon to lay colored blocks into the field, matching colors and causing colorful combo chains, while controlling Nav, your Navigator, through the field, jumping over gaps, pushing blocks into holes, and avoiding the very top of the field-- if Nav gets smashed between the blocks and the ceiling, it's game over.

Navigator is a unique game that is easy to learn and looks simple on the surface, but also has its own small learning curve that takes a few plays to really master!

o please note: Navigator is made in XNA. as such, you will need a Windows PC, and the .net Framework 4.x and XNA Framework 4.x installed in order to run the game.

o also, this game is very old (from a director's experience standpoint) and has very minimal in the ways of option settings, nor is there gamepad support.

Navigator is the first game of developer tj thomas of alpha six productions. this re-release is to honor the small, simple game that eventually allowed the creation of The Joylancer: Legendary Motor Knight, as well as other experimental works such as solaris.

NOTE: This game is no longer supported.
