The Sun and Moon

Description

The Sun and Moon is an action platformer based on the Ludum Dare #29 competition prototype of the same name, which won the competition with the theme Beneath The Surface. The small levels that are completed by collecting all "shinies" items, after which the wormhole exit is opened. Controls are limited to moving around and jumping. Contact with a single hazard, such as a spiked object or falling down the platforms floating in the sky, ends the level right away. The core game mechanic is a system that allows the character to enter solid objects such as walls or floor. While inside however, gravity is reversed and the character "falls" upwards. The momentum introduces a flinging mechanic, based on the height and the speed used to enter objects, which is used to overcome obstacles.

This updated version expands the game from 30 to 150 levels with a non-linear unlock system divided over ten systems with different visual styles. Levels now also have time goals with three medals per level based on the completion time. The visual elements are now much sharper and have been reworked entirely. The game also has a new soundtrack created by Dubmood.
