TTV Fan game: "Escape"

So I created this game originally for the Message Boards Anniversary Contest as my 2nd Entry for all to play and enjoy!
The concept behind it is pretty simple, a top view endless runner.
I’ve worked on it for 20 hours, (in the span of 4 days) so it’s still in development, but the current state of the game is totally playable, and I had @Cazapar to help me “beta test” it, to make sure there were a few to no bugs left. (Thanks Caz!), so I think is good enough to post.
All the imagery is 100% created by me.

Here are some Images:


Here’s the download link (Windows Only):

Update 0.6.9(1)

New Features

  • New UI coloration
  • New Icon

Relevant Tweaks

  • HP packs are more useful now

###DISCLAIMER (If you’ve played previous versions):
I had to rebuild the app, so the highscore will be saved on a slightly different route.
To import you previous highscore the only thing you need to do is go to “YourUser/AppData/Local” and search for the folder called “TTV_Escape_Reborn”, and copy the “highscore.dat” to the “TTV_Escape_beta” folder.

Disclaimer: I’m gonna keep updating the game, unless it’s against the site’s guidelines, cuz I’m a protector or something (If so, please shoot me a PM ).

Aw yeah! I’m so happy how this turned out! Thank you for letting me test the game!

[/quote] There should be a “Read more” button or something similar, if you press it it’ll show another button that says “Run”.


Bruh, that was on the first version. It is WAY harder than it was before, I can only get back up to 40NOPE:

A fantastic creation.

However, there seems to be an issue where the music stops once you collect a thingo.

Could just be me acting like a potato though…

I noticed, it only happens when you play the music called: “killers”, I’m looking into it, thanks for reporting the bug anyways ;D
EDIT : Fixed the bug, compiling app

Also:
TIP- If you want to boost to a certain direction, press the 2 keys corresponding to the direction desired (wasd and arrows, for example: “D + right_arrow”).

I have gotten a score of 8…

It does not respond well to my keyboard, It goes way too slow when I hit the bottom key.

Ah.
