Description

A puzzle game about running, not because one has somewhere to be, but because one has somewhere they don't want to be. In this game, you have to run away. Different doors are blocking the way, that need to be unlocked to proceed as fast as possible. Each door will give a different benefit, and a combination of them is the key to succeed .. or fail.

History

"The king is gone" is a game made with the experimental programming language "avdl". It was created to test the language's features and limits.

The project was created in about 6 months working part-time on it. The idea was inspired by the story of a king, that lost his status, and had to run away while discovering himself.

Features

  • 3 modes to choose from
  • Submit your score online and compete with other players
  • 3 different biomes, each with their own obstacles
