Raildown!

A game where you DON'T control a cart that unstoppably moves along the railroad. Instead, you control the environment, to make sure it doesn't crash anywhere. Pull levers, move boxes, and engage in high-speed puzzles.

Movement: Mouse only

Developed this little game prototype as a term paper for my bachelor's studies at Kyiv Mohyla Academy. It's quite rough around the edges and I would've done a better job if not a war in my country. But one day... One day I'll finish this... 

Just some fun background:

I first designed the game idea in 2018, and me and a couple of classmates made the game on a horrible game engine forgotten by all gods called Cocos2D (the python-based one). Despite the workload being hell on Earth, we managed to make a decent standalone game. And since then it's been my dream to remake the game on a better engine. And this version is an attempt at that. It's not the ONE, but it gave me a lot of experience. 

Game Design, Unity Development, and Music were all done by me.

Eternally grateful to heyitswidmo for an amazing tileset that sparked this game idea in the first place: https://heyitswidmo.itch.io/caves-rails-tileset
