THAT LAST CRATER

STORY


An accident occurred during the lunar mission; you're trapped in the moon and your death is certain!

You, Mark Donovan, was an astronaut, and were selected for the lates lunar project. You were very proud to be the first man to land a step on the moon after such a long time, since the latest one in 1969.

While walking on the surface of the beloved satellite, the unexpected happened and all connection have been lost: You've found yourself in the deeps of a newly formed crater. Both of your legs and your left arm were broken, and your only hope was the remaining oxygen in your suit and its flashlight. After a while, you've realized that you may not be alone in the crater at all...

There is no point in trying, and your death is certain, crawling towards you slowly. Yet you still try to survive, far from the home planet. This is a story of will.

This game was made for the Paradise Blitz VI - The Moon game jam! Go check the other games! And rate them all.

MECHANICS

  • You have a heartbeat monitor installed on your suit. Use it to keep track of your heart rate. Getting jumpscared or sitting in the dark increases your heart rate. When it's too high, you have a heart attack and die
  • Use your suit's Oxygen-aid (Key: Q) to decrease your heart rate and stay calm. Keep in mind that your oxygen is not limitless.
  • Use your flashlight to see in the darness and locate the hazards coming towards you. Disabling your flashlight (Key: E) stops all the insects but steadily increases your heart rate.
  • When you see a insect, quickly click on it (Key: LMB) to make it go away. If you don't click on it on the time, you get jumpscared.
  • Zoom with your suit's camera (Key: RMB) to better locate the insect.
  • Good luck!

GAME STATUS

  • Main mechanics are almost done but need polishing. 
  • Story isn't completed. Might consider finishing it after the game jam.
  • CAUTION: Due to a bug I currently can't resolve, you may not be able to proceed much in the game. If the game crashes, simply restart again. If it doesn't open no matter what, please contact me.
