Rise (Prototype)

By Baconation

A simple physics based "Infinite Runner" genre of platformer. Similar to other games like Tomb Runner or Doodle Jump the goal is to rise to greater heights each time you start.

This game was developed as part of the "Finally Finish Something 2020" Game Jam.

Music

Rise is meant to be a chill and casual experience. In service to that the game has a music track system that allows you to play, pause and skip songs. While playing song names will appear at the bottom of the screen when a new track plays. The songs contained in the track list are ambiance, piano, string, rain, etc...

Death

Each time you are killed or restart manually the level will regenerate itself into a new configuration. There are a limited variety of "tiles" that will generate but they will never be in the same order.

Obstacles

Obstacles come in the form of stationary, moving and projectiles. If you touch any of the obstacle types you will instantly die and be given a death screen with stats of your run. All obstacles come in the form of a glowing red object so they are easily identifiable.

Walls

Walls that you are able to interact with can be standard (white), bouncy (green), friction-less (blue) or sticky (black). Each wall type is color coded so that during your run you can quickly identify them.

Unlocks

Unlocks are the main path of progression in the game. Whenever you are at the starting area (you have less than 10 score) an unlock button is visible. This gives you access to additional content that can be acquired once certain heights are met. These unlocks can range from different player shapes (square, hexagon) to new music tracks that you can listen to while you play.

Wow. That was pretty fun and challenging!) 

Thanks for the kind words.

"An error occurred running the Unity content on this page. See your browser JavaScript console for more info. The error was: SecurityError: The operation is insecure." Got this while trying to start the game.

Not entirely sure but that seems like a problem with your browser or PC permissions level. There's not much I can do in regards to that.

If you cannot get the browser version to work there is always a downloadable version for you. It runs faster and has better graphics presets.

Sorry you were having trouble.
