Goose Labyrinth

Submitted to Mini Jam 99: Birds (72 hours)

Object of the game:

Reach the exit and escape from the Goose’s pursuit! Beware, he is armed…

Controls:

• Movement - Arrow keys / Joystick
• Pause - Escape
• Restart - R

Movement

Your character can only move a set number of tiles and in one direction per turn, so you’ll have to be smart! Some obstacles influence how far he moves, though, so you’ll need to use them to your advantage. Here’s what they do:

Walls - stop him dead in his tracks, regardless of how far he’s moved.

Puddles – slow him down, reducing the number of tiles he can move in that turn.

The Goose:

The Goose always spawns after a couple turns in a level and immediately starts following your trail. He will do exactly the same moves as you, but he’s quicker! So, he’ll catch up by at least one tile with every move he makes. Don’t let him catch-up; he has that knife in his beak for a reason…

Note:  Try not to fall off the edges; it's bad for your health.

Have fun!
