v1.0.1 Update


Thanks to everyone for playing and rating the game during the 2022 JOWREZJAM, we're really pleased with how it was received and that we were ranked 75th place in the overall category.

Here's a list of the things that were fixed during this update, there is a new download and the web version has been updated to match this version.

  • Your name is remembered on repeat runs after inputting it the first time
  • The P key can be used to pause, ESC to pause would close full screen mode when playing in browser
  • Air depletion pauses for a few seconds on level clear, a feature in the original game that we missed
  • Volume settings are saved in memory
  • Air spawning has been adjusted, a previous issue was causing air to always spawn in the same column per stage so it felt like air wasn't always spawning
  • Corrected the walking animation so the "front" foot moves first
  • Climbing is much less likely to cause the player to fall through the level, this is still a bug that can happen occasionally but has been drastically reduced
  • Player falling sound now always plays after falling 2 blocks if there are 3 empty spaces below
  • Player death sound has been added in, this was mistakenly removed before the launch version was released

Player scores are stored in our database by version but the in-game leaderboard shows the highest score for all versions. We might make a separate web version of the leaderboard that can be broken down by version and show more than just the top 15 scores.

Known bugs:

  • Blocks above air cans don't fall when you collect an air can
  • Blocks don't always stay with their group when falling
  • Blocks sometimes fall at different rates, causing an issue where they can "catch up" to the player when they're falling
  • Collecting air cans mid fall can cause the air to be "collected" multiple times
  • Climbing can cause you to fall through the level, typically it appears to be when climbing over X blocks

If you notice any more bugs whilst playing, feel free to report them.
