You won't survive the fall through the loop. But you can try to rack up as many points as possible on your way down.


Gameplay

- Avoid platforms as you fall, for each pass through the loop, gravity and maximum velocity increases.

- Your barrier protects you from taking damage on platforms, but it recharges slowly.

- Bounce on enemies to slow down your descent and get some breathing room.

- Collect gems and bop enemies to increase your score.

- Dotted platforms in the background gives a hint of what's coming up next.

Made for #CGAJAM 2017

This game was made for the #CGAJAM 2017 with 3 of the 4 given themes in mind: History Repeats Always Faster + Gravity.

The idea for the themes was this: Each room/segment (green or red area) shows what comes next if you look at the dotted platforms in the background. The room itself is then also repeated in a never-ending loop where gravity keeps increasing for each completed loop, causing you to fall faster and faster.
