A downloadable game for Windows

This is a straightforward clone of the first level of Velgress from UFO 50, made for Eggjam #24. It's a platformer where you climb up a procedurally generated tower while the ground crumbles behind you.

The main purpose of this game is to test my custom lighting and physics engines in a "real" context, at which it has been quite successful already. I hope to continue developing it into a proper vertical slice with fully realized graphics and one or two original mechanics; you can see whether or not that's actually happening in the project's source code repository.

Controls

Currently only keyboard controls are available and cannot be customized.

Arrow keys
Move, aim
Left shift
Jump, restart after death
ZShoot
Number keys 1-4
Change lighting quality

The lighting is fairly demanding on the GPU. If the game doesn't run well for you, try a lower lighting quality setting (1 = lowest, 4 = highest, default: 4) or a smaller window.
