What's funny to me is how much I overestimated I'd be able to do with ZZT's extremely fast development process. I wanted 5 purple keys at first, and was going to do a cliche ZZT RPG Boss Battle at the end instead but had to scrap it for time constraints.
I'm glad you liked it! Unfortunately yeah, Dosbox and ZZT don't quite play along as well as you'd hope and the input handling can be a little messed up at times.
This is definitely the kind of game I'd have kept on my graphing calculator back in the day.
I'm also amazed to find out I'm not the only person who made something requiring Dosbox!
Cool game! The music and art style are nice and it seems like there's a good bit to it
This is a really cool concept and an excellent art style. Definitely the most unique game Ive seen this jam.
I'm still humming the song after playing. I didn't think the jam would be so slippery, but it's definitely better that it is!
Really nice puzzle platformer! There's a lot that can be done with this idea and of the many "platformer where you head downward" games i've played so far this one is the best. Also the sound effects are great.
Player half worked well and this was fun to run through. I don't know if I got lucky will spawns on the drill side as I managed it without much trouble. Perhaps having the drill's movement be done by adjusting the angle would make it harder to be able to tell at a glance how safe the drill was in its current direction?
Those are some tight jumps! I definitely laughed when I first fell and plummeted into the sewers.
