You stand in front of a tower. Will you manage to climb to the top?

A small first person platformer inspired by CS/TF2 jump maps

Controls

W A S D — Move

Space — Jump

Everything made by me except sfx, which I got from freesound

Notes:

- This game was put together pretty quickly and it's not very well balanced. If you have experience with source airstrafing and surf/jump maps it'll probably be easy, otherwise you might experience some sudden spikes in difficulty. Still, hope its enjoyable!

- Mouse sensitivity should be the same as in Source games

- Mac and Linux versions were not tested but hopefully they'll work fine

- Here's a run of the game in case you get stuck

- And here's a quick attempt at a speedrun with a few skips

This is really good but boy it taps EXACTLY into the same part of my brain as frustrating surf maps. I wish there was a way to prevent accidentally falling off ledges, like in minecraft. You don't have to walk off ledges intentionally much, so a toggle on ctrl that lets you walk off or not walk off (while retaining your ability to jump or dash off) might be nice? It's unconventional but would've saved me a ton of headache. Overall very very good game I loved it

Yeah, you are right. The biggest thing is an underlying issue with the movement solution I used where the player is a capsule instead of a cylinder with a flat base and you easily slide off platforms if walking too close to the edge. There's a bit of coyote time to allow jumping after sliding off ground but it's still pretty noticeable and annoying. I put this all very quickly, game jam style, and didn't manage to properly fix that issue, sorry for the frustration!

Thanks a lot for playing and leaving a comment, appreciate it!

Finally Complete! it took me about an hour. This game was amazing to play and kept me playing even though I felt like I couldn't pass a part of the game. 9/10

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks a lot for playing!

Nice game. I almost completed but  I couldn't pass the last part :/

what was in the top :) ?

Yeah it gets pretty tough at the end, thanks for playing!

Nothing special at the top really, but you can see the whole thing here:

just so you know, the mac version doesn't work.

(1 edit)

I think it has to do with file permissions after unzipping the app, but don't know exactly how to prevent it and I don't have a mac to test on :(

Updating the permissions from Terminal using "chmod -R +x zima.app/Contents/MacOS" should probably do it.

In any case thanks for giving it a try!
