My first cart! Collect fire, avoid ice, and try to survive the cold! Reach 500 points for a secret...

Controls and Rules:

Menu:

↑ ↓ Enable and Disable Music
X Start Game
Z View High Score List

In Game:

↑ ↓ ← → Move Character

How to Play:

Fires increase your score and the time remaining. Lightning gives you a speed boost. Ice spikes will hurt you. If the timer reaches 0 (seconds) or player health reaches 0 the game will end.

I'm glad you found my music useful! (I'm realizing that my itch.io username and lexaloffle username don't make it clear that I'm the same person lol, but the icon is the same at least)

Is it intentional to start the score at 120? Not sure if that's a bug, I didn't see the score at all the first time I played, so maybe I did something weird to make it start at 120?
Also, it might be cool if there were more icicles the longer you played so that it gets more challenging as you play and stays fun for longer.

Great first cart, good luck with future game dev projects!

Came across this on Splore, I really like it!
I also really love what you did with the cover lol

Favourited.
