With Free Monster Samples
A downloadable game for Windows
My entry for the 2016 Wizard Jam.
In the deafening din of Megacity Baboo, fill the shoes of a travelling salesperson. You need to get rid of all your Monster drink samples by tapping on the doors of the residents of two skyscrapers.
Press Enter to tap on their doors and then try and match the emoticon that they are somehow imparting on you through half a metre of steel.
It is essentially morse code, so short tap is one input, long tap and hold is another. Figure out the code to answer more complex emoticons.
Controls:
Arrows to move around
Space bar to Jump
Enter to interact with doors
ESC to quit
Updates:
Cleaned up the backgrounds
Added some sparkles to indicate doors to interact with
Changed everything to point filtering for pixelly goodness
Added a timer
Added an intro screen with instructions
Enabled difficulty selection
Known Issues:
Sometimes Interact animation will not play if pressed in quick succession, consider that every key press is being recognised
Ladder climbing animation wigs out on idle animation
Aaaand probably something other cosmetic things

Unzip and play, should run at most resolutions, better at lower widescreen resolutions for crunchier pixels!

Hey, great jam game. I liked the concept, however I wasn't ever sure if I was adding to a combination or restarting one. But the art style really suited the monster energy brand :D
Thanks a lot, yeah, player feedback is really lacking with entering and visualing that input. But as long as I converted you into a Monster drink drinker, then my job is done. :p
Thanks a bunch for checking it out!
