Critical Error
This is a submission for the 49th Ludum Dare game jam.
You play as Keeko.exe the purple computer virus and infiltrate the system, making it so unstable that it crashes! Overwrite file systems (purple blocks) to respawn from them if you accidentally get deleted!
There are so many things I wanted to do with this game jam but I only had a few hours to work on it. Here is a better idea of the concept with all the stuff I haven't had a chance to implement:
- Any kind of jumping at all
- (Specifically a spring jump toward a cursor the player can aim in any direction)
- Make the computer more progressively unstable as you overwrite the system
- Unlock more powerful hacking abilities in Metroidvania style gameplay
- Way better art, music, effects, and sound effects
- More computer-like aesthetic
- Commentary on bottom of screen as console commands
- Fight pompous Antivirus bosses with hilarious corporate satire
- Travel to other computers using the internet as a hub
- Uncover scandalous secrets hidden in top secret mainframes
