About the Game

Trapped is a 2.5D scifi side scrolling platformer, where by a series of unfortunate events, you the player, have ended up inside a computer, where you need to find out how to escape the computer that you have been trapped inside of. Why are you here and what caused you to be in this position?

Trapped takes inspiration from classic platformers, as well as other old games, when secrets weren't so easy to find in the games.

Currently, there is only a jog, run, and jump. There are two types of collectables, coins, and gems. 100 coins will gain you an extra life, and each gem you collect will grant you an extra life. At the end of the game there is a high score, based on coins collected, gems collected, and lives lost. There are also counters to let you know how many you collected out of the total.

There is currently no story in the game, that will come later. There is also currently no background music, I was working on some, but didn't feel the quality was good enough, so I pulled it.

Current Background music is by Teknoaxe, and is called Love on a Starship - Remastered.
