The Ludum Dare 48h game compo #15 took place a few weeks ago. I participated and turned in Cave Ninja.

You play as a small ninja in a cave, doing whatever the mission is (usually reach the star). There's destructible terrain and lava for help.



There's full instructions within the game, but in short
Left/Right Arrows: Move
Enter/Left Ctrl: Jump
1-3: Select weapon
Up/Down Arrows: Aim
Space/Left Alt: Charge/fire weapon
Esc, then R: Restart mission
Esc, then Q: Quit

Download Windows binary (reported to work in Wine). This has two bug fixes made after the compo.

Entry page at Ludum Dare with ratings, comments, download link of compo version (that also includes source). Full journal. Post Mortem.

It placed #7 in General and #8 in Fun, so it missed out on medals, but there were a total of 144 entries so I'm pretty happy.
