xkcd - Infinite Saber
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
For the xkcd gamejam. Based on the xkcd comic #1433.
How do you actually use a light saber that doesn't end? Can you traverse the level, while also keeping it intact?
I really liked the ridiculous nature of the comic found here:
...and was hoping to capture that in this gamejam challenge. At the moment, it's a bit more of an interactive humor comic. :P But I Iiked the idea of balancing when to turn on your saber to attack/defend and traversing the level.
Update 1.0.2:
Various bug fixes. Title screen UI works with controller now.
(Added mac and linux versions. Both untested at the moment).
Update 1.0.1:
Added more final anims and other tweaks.
CTRLS:
Can be played with mouse/keyboard or controller.
Keyboard Controls-
WASD to move. Space or W to jump. Left-mouse-click uses your saber, right-mouse deploys it. Press W or space to double-jump.
Controller-
Left analog stick moves. A for jump. Press A again to double-jump. X for attack. B to deploy.
