Anything you want to say to players before they play?
CONTROLS:
- Arrow Keys / AWSD / QZSD : Move character
- Space: Use the force
- ESC: Reset level

SKIP INTRO INSTRUCTIONS:
- The intro of the game is really long (but worth it). If you want to go straight to the game, there is a 3rd hidden option in the main menu that lets you skip the intro. Just go one below the options.
- The beginning text crawl has controls to let you fast-forward/rewind
- The game has a PG13 option because of some strong language and cartoonish nudity (nothing offensive I'm sure).
- This game has voice acting. In the options, you can also change the voice setting (voice only, subtitle only, voice + subtitle).

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
I really tried to get the feel of the Star Wars experience, including the famous "Galaxy far far away" line and the text crawl in the beginning. All the music are recreations of the music from Star Wars. There's one you might not recognize, because it was removed from the special edition (Yub Nub, one of my favorite song)

I was inspired by The Last Jedi, not just by the movie but also all the polarized opinion from fans and critics. I did find the movie interesting, in the way that it sort of mess with expectations, and doesn't follow all the standard film tropes found every Hollywood movie.

With that in mind, I thought I'd try to play with those ideas, in a game that might surprise you.

Funny game!! I included it in my Movie Game Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out! :)

Thanks Jupi!

Glad you had to check it out. I should have warned you that the intro is nearly 10 min long to get to the game, so you might not have reached the actual game yet :-P
But it's ok. I did spend 90% of my time working on the intro, so I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks. I realize after your play I should try to add better indications.

After meeting Yoda, you learned force jump!

Better then the movie!! Controls are a bit wonky, but I guess they add to the experience!

I didn't expect actual gameplay after the long cutscenes. Well done on surprising me!
