Dude. Putting something else in the "end" room would have been great for an Easter Egg.

Nice job! I liked the lava textures. Only complaint: Auto-restart was annoying, should be "press key to restart" so I could do something else if I wanted. =)

taugeshtu 2013-08-26 05:34

Should've called it "Floor is lava" :D

zerebruin 2013-08-26 06:34

Half-Life meets Minecraft! Not bad for your first Unity game & fits the theme well.

tomk32 2013-08-26 06:52

Unexpected title, that's nice. No audio? It's one of the best senses we have to put us into a alert state, something you want with this game.

skarab 2013-08-26 14:37

Hmm nice idea! Nice design of levels too.

2013-08-27 01:17

Good use of the 10 second theme. Enjoyed the game.

psychomonster 2013-08-27 01:36

This is really good. Nice Idea :) More sounds would be cool ;)

matthewvermaak 2013-08-27 02:47

That third level is a toughy :0) Good job.

cardboard 2013-08-27 05:04

The mouse wasn't locked to the center of the screen (at least for me), and the sensitivity was crazy. I guess that could be on my end though since my default sensitivity is somewhat high. Very nice spin on the whole "floor is lava" thing. I enjoyed it, but would have enjoyed it more with sound and/or music :)

designernap 2013-08-27 07:26

Got stuck on third level but nice idea. It seems to fail on the end room so that I need to exit the app and restart to try again. Good idea though.

jupiter_hadley 2013-08-27 15:35

Really good idea and nice use of the theme. I like the bit of parkour that you have to do in a pinch of time. I featured it in my compilation of Ludum Dare 27 games, if you want to check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8Polnsp4F8

coffeeonimal 2013-08-27 16:37

Nice work with the theme. Pretty good work for your first Unity game.

vavassor 2013-08-27 18:37

Nice take on The Floor Is Lava, had fun with it!

orni 2013-08-27 19:32

great game, couldn't beat it though :(

really terrifying to get the ground beneath your feet taken away and be thrown into lava

well done, liked it a lot

sendmorepeople 2013-08-27 22:17

Haha, I beat it! The trick is on the last level to jump on the railing first, then run up it, and use that to jump.

The ending was pretty rad, but I feel like I should have fallen into lava!

Magnus 2013-08-28 00:13

This pretty cool. It's a nicely simple idea. Congrats on your first Unity game.

beardbotnik 2013-08-28 01:31

Interesting game, I always liked a sort of "the floor is lava" idea. The controls are a little wonky but it was still pretty easy to beat. I really liked the pixel style of the textures! A little bit of audio I think would have helped it a lot too.

mboaj 2013-08-28 01:44

nice ambient and atmosphere.

legacycrono 2013-08-28 03:01

Nicely done! Too bad it doesn't have audio, would make it much more enjoyable. Congrats on your first Unity game, bro! ;D

fgielow 2013-08-28 03:28

straight to the point when regarding the theme! levels could be a little more complex though.. but in 10 seconds that is pretty hard, though :/

atgaubatz 2013-08-28 04:02

Cool! Love the visual style.

loxo 2013-08-28 04:14

Great idea! Only audio is missing. The levels are a bit cramped for my taste.

unixxnova 2013-08-28 07:28

Fun but needs music and more levels

nickw 2013-08-28 10:41

Fun while it lasted! I liked the END screen haha.

matrixbai 2013-08-28 10:44

Interesting idea, remind me the adventure movie.

roguenoodle 2013-08-28 10:54

Pretty fun - little short though :( Would definitely be cool to see this idea taken further.

vanderzwan 2013-08-28 11:09

===== SPOILERS =======

Love how you fall off into an infinite void if you try to walk towards the end.

bumpkinrich 2013-08-28 11:14

Nice idea. Sounds would have really helped with the sense of urgency. Couldn't tell what was 'safe' so there was a bit of trial and error.

skywing 2013-08-28 13:10

Very nice, intense game.

haxpor 2013-08-28 13:31

The puzzle is good mate! Only catch is that I'm headache as the camera makes me crazy.

matthias_zarzecki 2013-08-28 13:33

Nice idea!

krides 2013-08-28 15:16

Nice concept! Completed it. However, I've got a comment on level design, I think it's not sufficiently clear what objects are solid and which ones will fall. I think you could do something about their affordance. Other than that—good job.

dagothig 2013-08-28 18:49

Pretty neat implementation of the theme and a fairly fun concept... though sluggish controls and flickery graphics were sadly a nuisance, and the lack of levels was a bit of a downer.

martin_monosys 2013-08-28 19:02

Cool game, looking flashy and fun to play. Sound and music were sadly missed, however... That would have been perfect! :)

blupsy 2013-08-28 20:07

Short, sweet, and smooth. My favorite LD game qualities.

imef 2013-08-28 20:44

Maybe a bit short right now. I like the idea though so I can't wait for the post compo!

kristof 2013-08-28 21:01

Nice graphics! And super cool for a first game in Unity. A bit short though :)

sellsword 2013-08-28 21:10

Mouse sensitivy is way too high for me. I got a lot of screen tearing as well. Mouse wasn't locked to center which was strange. Was playing on my Linux box. Oh, and a way to terminate the game would be nice. I wanted to quit in the third level but had to alt-tab out and kill it. ESC to exit or something would've been nice.

celticraft49 2013-08-28 21:36

I liked it. This moving your view was pretty sensitive though.

d-e-x 2013-08-28 22:09

It was challenging because of the extremely difficult controls, I enjoy the graphics, it added a lot to the mood, the lava makes you stress to not fall into it, so there's definitely some immersion on there!

futuristteletex 2013-08-28 22:20

Nice idea and fun gameplay.

mango-man 2013-08-28 23:35

I love it! Great idea.

tainted_code 2013-08-28 23:43

Was cool, although physics were a little dodgy. Also, no music D: but the idea was great and well executed!

rfgpfeiffer 2013-08-30 09:15

Mouse sensitivity is waaaay to high for me (on linux). The camera is just spinning around

shard123 2013-08-31 17:11

Great graphics and idea, I would love to see more!

otus 2013-08-31 17:36

Nice concept and level-design :)

gigabass 2013-09-01 00:00

DAT MOUSE SENSITIVITY DROVE ME CRAZY! Fun game though, simple concept

antidote 2013-09-01 00:40

Third level was the hardest indeed ^^

codexus 2013-09-01 11:28

Very cool concept. It works. Good job!

zap 2013-09-04 02:01

The insane camera sensitivity spoiled it for me. Nice concept though.

danlucas 2013-09-04 15:21

Great for a first game in Unity. A little short but that's because of the 48 hours. I found it very fun though!

fferro234 2013-09-05 04:57

Yaa escape the lava game. You should have imported couches or tables or other other house things to make it more like a kid was playing. Loved this game as a kid.

ointment 2013-09-05 14:06

"That's it?"

Also I won the last level basically by jumping at the right time.

2013-09-16 21:58

Hi ! Even if the game is quite short I really liked trying it ;) Are you still thinking about making a post compo version?

Here is a gameplay video I made a few weeks ago if anyone hasn't tried this yet :

jedi 2013-09-16 22:54

You sure know how to keep a game in scope! I'm super-jealous of that ability.

Congrats on your first Unity game, it was fun! :)
