Gridlock Jumpers
A downloadable game for Windows
Basically i mixed platforming and sokoban together and ended up with a tactics game
If the game window is small press Alt+Enter to go full-screen
Some options are disabled for the tutorial but everything is available for the actual levels
Controls (also in tutorial)
Arrows to move
Z to jump in Jumper mode
Z to undo in Pusher/Repel modes
Shift to open/close menu to switch mode
Z to select in menu
Enter can also selects in menu
Tutorial prompts
arrows to move
Z to jump
holding jump will let you jump higher
you can jump on enemies
Holding jump will let you go higher
R to restart level
Press shift to change mode
use pusher mode to push blocks and enemies
press Z to undo
you can only move one block at a time
Jumper mode can move through walls
pusher is stopped by walls
Shift to switch and Z to undo
Repel mode can also go through walls
select it with shift
you can press Z to undo when in Pusher or Repel modes
note: you can only push or repel one block/enemy at a time
actions are required to move blocks/enemies
if an tile is moved it becomes *active*
and you dont need an action to move
them again
the *active* tiles will be highlighted
maximum of two tiles can be #*active* at the same time
if you try to activate 3 a previously
activated tile will lose its *active*
status (first-in-first-out)
you can still activate them again using
another action
you can collect actions when in jumper mode
then switch mode to move tiles/enemies
remember Z to undo and R to restart
Note: falling out of the level is pretty harmless
you are put back where you started
you beat a level if there are no enemies at the start of
your turn
move blocks over the portals to stop them from spawning
additional enemies and jump on enemies to eliminate them
you get to switch modes 3 times per turn
actions carry over between turns
remember Z to undo and R to restart
If you're having trouble with tutorial #7
The idea is just to cover the portals while only touching 3 of the spiky balls
Tips
Generally want use spiky balls to block portals
Conserve disappearing blocks where you can, you may need them later to win
Having a bunch of actions ready can be useful in later rounds as well
Rant
No HTML5 build because gamemaker messes up the text
