Tephra Toil

As a vulcanologist of the future you have an advaned system for scanning tephra as it is thrown from the volcano.

In order to complete your research you must scan all the types of tephra and escape the volcano with your precious research.

Controls

  • Movement — ⬅️ ➡️
  • Dive — ⬇️ (for fun!)
  • Start / restart at game over — ❎ / X

Get close to the rising tephra in order to scan it, the more you scan the closer you get to completing your research and furthering humanity's understanding of hot flying rock.

This is the fifth game I've completed and released, I hope you enjoy it!

Huge thanks to Gruber for the beautiful game music which is the "Nostalgia" track from Pico-8 Tunes Volume 1.

Thanks to Lexaloffle for making PICO-8, it was a real pleasure to work with.

A big thank you to the Eggplant Show community who inspired me to make another game and have given great feedback along the way.

Thank you, dredds! I forgot how to export .png carts (should've RTFMed) and so I used SAVE @CLIP which I didn't realise doesn't flatten the includes. Also—I should've also checked the cart actually worked, mea culpa! 🤦‍♂️
