path of thorns
Guide the girl home through a path of thorns using the cursor keys in the puzzler path of thorns by Cosy Cave for the 'entire game on one screen' themed Ludum Dare 31 game jam.
I got up to level 6, and then as part of my solution I kicked a rock into the next room, and now it's obstructing me from entering it. And it won't let me restart either room, because I unlocked the next one but I'm not actually in it. So now I guess I have to reload the whole page and do it all again.:(
I wonder how far you can stretch the rule, "entire game on one screen", by making a very large game that you need to use the scroll bars to keep your character in view ?
First! Now let's try this game lol.
ReplyDeleteNot too puzzling, but a cute game nonetheless.

ReplyDeleteI'm too lazy, though. I think I'll go play something else. (Same as above Anon)
ReplyDeleteLove different takes on classic puzzle formats. This one is well done and fun. Finished it. Love the last move!
ReplyDeleteDid it! :)
ReplyDeleteFun little game for in-between. I'm so glad the Ludum dare games are finally out, I was really looking foward to them! :D

ReplyDeleteSame thing happened to me. Kicked a rock from frame 6 into frame 7. Disappointed, but not enough to replay the whole thing.
I've just understood what "I kicked a rock from frame 6 into frame 7" means!!! :P
ReplyDeleteI better quit now before someone gets hurt.
(I couldn't resist and started again from the beginning, of course)
ReplyDeleteShe's home now ;)
Very pleasant for my eye and hear. Thank you, Bart!
Another Unity-based game that I cannot play unless Unity develops a Linux plugin. Please mark Unity-based games in your descriptions!
ReplyDeleteI can't even do level 3! :/
ReplyDeleteDoh! I mean level 4!!
ReplyDeleteNow I feel REALLY dumb! I kicked a stone through the gap everyone warned me not to... Guess I'll have to start all over again! lol
ReplyDeleteOkay - not so dumb after all... She's home. :)
ReplyDeleteDecent art level for a simple trial game. Thanks Bart!
