You are in a tower. The Exits are closed and the tower is collapsing... But help is on the way! Survive until the counter in the bottom right hits the end.

Originally this game was called "Crumbling-Tower", but i renamed it due to a similar sounding level in a certain Pizza-game 

The entirety of this game is written in Assembly and fits into only 32kb. I haven't gotten around making music for it, since i'd need to clean up a LOT to still fit within this limit. 106 bytes are probably not enough, to make something worth listening :)

Controls: Z/X -> continue/restart, Enter -> start game/pause, Left/Right -> move

There are many ways to run this game:

- Open up in a good emulator like "Sameboy" or "BGB"

- Run it on real hardware using a flashcard or something like an AT27C256 (haven't tested yet, so don't quote me on that)

- or simply run it in the browser

A bit simple, but fun none the less. It would fit right in as one of those bonus games on Gameboy Camera, or as a launch game for the OG Gameboy!

love it !

The game is... fine. I feel as if it gets a bit stale after 3 or so minutes. Maybe flesh it out a bit more? Pretty good for the jam though

Thanks for your Feedback, I agree, it could use some changes, especially performance-wise.

I’m currently learning how to do screen-effects and to use sprites more efficiently. I’ll give it an update, once i know more.
