Escape the Cave

Escape the Cave is a Flappy Bird Alternative with a dark twist.

Find your way out of a dark, procedurally generated cave.

Be aware of your dwindling lights*

To recharge them, you have to collect light orbs coming across your way.

Play game in fullscreen mode (click bottom right icon).

Click inside the game to activate keyboard controls.

There is only one key SPACE (alternatives are W and ArrowUp key).

*Play the game in Firefox if possible.

Embrace the Darkness

The light orbs are faintly glowing even in the dark areas.

Playing the game in  darkness will help spotting them early - making it easier to collect them.

In Chrome the light is not slowly dimming over time, but just "collapses" at one point. I recommend playing the game in Firefox, if possible.

Added the winning condition last minute and without testing. Turns out that it would have needed a small delay for accepting key inputs. As it is now, the win screen will only show up for a sec, as you probably will keep pressing a keys - which then triggers a new game start instantly.

For this Jam I was going solo. All the art assets are hand-drawn with ♥ and passion by me, Humane Tiger.

I develop with non-canvas web standard technologies - HTML, CSS and JavaScript. I am using no frameworks - it's all native code written with VSCode.
