A game about running from a very large pumpkin
Winner of the Untitled Game Jam 82.
An infinite 2D runner made in under ten days. The Pumpking chases you through a Halloween landscape. Jump over obstacles, collect power-ups for temporary buffs: speed, higher jumps, or flight. Squash everything in your path for bonus points.
The controls are one button: space or tap. The difficulty is the Pumpking, who runs almost at your speed. Every second you spend not moving has to be made up with a power-up, or it ends.
Art drawn in Pixaki, soundtrack by Jose Salcido. Still playable in the browser on itch.io.
