About

Plead with the Mountain God is a somber dark fantasy/horror-themed platformer made for the Haunted PS1 Summer of Screams Jam.

Survive the perilous climb and plead with the mountain god to resurrect your beloved.

Features:

  • Climb the ancient towers built to reach an age-old god.
  • Collect "hearts", the essence of those that came before you, in an effort to appease the god.
  • Talk to people who have decided to stay at the mountain.
  • Pray for the mountain god's favor and receive his gifts.

Because of time constraints, controller support was tested only for a PS4 controller; other controllers will most likely not work correctly.
Mouse and keyboard are also supported (but there are no rebindable keys, unfortunately).

The game doesn't have any saving, so exiting the game (or going back to the main menu) will reset everything. An average playthrough should take around 30-60 minutes, maybe slightly more if you explore the whole map.

You can check both controller and keyboard controls in the options menu.
All button prompts are for a Playstation controller; there was no time to change them for keyboard users.
Here is a list of the controls and what they correspond to on a keyboard:

Right Stick    
MouseCamera Control
Left Stick/D-Pad    
WASDRun/Navigate Menus

SpaceJump/Confirm or Select in Menus
