A downloadable game

Submitted for the LibGDX March Game Jam!

I was out of town for most of the jam so this is what I slapped together in a short time!

Plot
You are exploring a mine that is starting to collapse! Escape the mine by running up towards the light while avoiding large boulders. There is a countdown timer until the mine completely collapses. Collect BLUE crystals to increase your time. If you do not collect any blue crystals, you will probably die.

Stick to the left for a slightly easier route. The right side is for those who want more of a challenge. Or, go all over the place!

Control

W- Move Forward
A- Strafe Left
S- Move Backward
D- Strafe Right
Space - Jump
Shift - Sprint (you will need to use this a lot!)
Mouse - Turn

Bravo :clap: :clap: Extremely well made underground runner. :)

I challenged myself to get to the top without sprinting... xD And I almost got it! Sadly it wasn't a challenge I just didn't read the controls xDD but I almost got it!! Great game <3

Haha yeah I debated making the character always sprint but sometimes walking is helpful

 Thanks!

Great entry! Perfect with the theme. Had the feel of an endless runner. The difficulty was nice too. Sticking to the left was defiantly a big help.  Good show!
