Junk Ascent
A downloadable game
This is a work-in-progress game for the Catamount Game Jam.
Still very much a WIP, but playable!
There's currently no win condition, and the cave platform distribution is always the same.
======================================
You've fallen in a hole and cant get up!
Utilize the junk at the bottom of the pit to make your way safely to the top!
But beware, the hole is collapsing and those rocks don't seem friendly.
======================================
Room Wrap is a big advantage here. Moving through the edge of the screen puts you on the other side of the screen!

- A / D or Left / Right: Move
- Space: Jump / Double Jump (with boots)
