Trip Down the Chip Mine [for noser]

FINALLY, we found you! Someone who is willing to work honestly and dig into the old mine. But wait, this is a special mine: instead of precious metal, you are excavating computer chips

The game was made following noser's prompts for Sekret Santa 2023:
- big pixels
- limited palette
- maze
- momentum
- archeology/digging
- high-stakes climax

You tell me if I delivered on that last item.

The game is about 10-15 minutes long I think! THERE IS NO SOUND YET, I'm too tired for that so that's gonna go in a future release; it's a bring your own music and imagination kinda deal

Edit: To move, hover the arrow button and press space. No need to click on them!

Have fun, I'm happy that I can finally play other entries :)

Enjoying it so far! I really

Enjoying it so far! I really like how well the room transition animations work.

At what I'm assuming is almost the end, after it shifts into climax mode, I get a crash with this exception:

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
File "game/script.rpy", line 480, in script
show screen boss(idle=True) with dissolve
File "renpy/common/000statements.rpy", line 649, in execute_show_screen
renpy.with_statement(eval(transition_expr))
File "game/boss.rpy", line 142, in execute
screen boss(idle=False):
File "game/boss.rpy", line 142, in execute
screen boss(idle=False):
File "game/boss.rpy", line 146, in execute
fixed:
File "game/boss.rpy", line 148, in execute
if boss_phase == 1:
File "game/boss.rpy", line 151, in execute
use boss_phase2(destination, idle)
File "game/boss.rpy", line 219, in execute
screen boss_phase2(pDestination, idle):
File "game/boss.rpy", line 219, in execute
screen boss_phase2(pDestination, idle):
File "game/boss.rpy", line 244, in execute
add "boss/phase2_"+getBossPhase2Side()+"_[boss_sprite].png":
Exception: DynamicImage 'boss/phase2_front_[boss_sprite].png': could not find image. ('boss/phase2_front_attack.png')

and looking at the assets, it does look like phase2_front_attack is absent (there's a phase2_front_punch)

Thank you very much :))

Thank you very much :))
I'm very glad you enjoyed it so far, I'm very sorry about the crash! It should work now if you want to download it again (no need to keep the old version)
