Monorail is a fast pasted, 1 button game action game created in 72 hours for the Ludam Dare 28 game jam competition. The game came in 33rd place in the competition out of a total of 780 entries.

The theme for the challenge was “You only get 1″. Players ride along the rail and crash through the “1″s as they try to avoid the others. Pass the other numbers on the opposite side to subtract one from them. Crash “1″s to score points and proceed to the next level. Progressing to each new level level increases the player’s speed  and contains a new track to ride along with numbers in increasingly tricky locations, keeping the player on their toes and testing their reflexes.

The simple and addictive gameplay complemented by the clean art style (with the music of Moleman) gave the game a high level of polish. We’re all extremely happy with how the game turned out and with all the positive feedback we received from the community.

Thanks to the team for being excellent to work with as usual: Alistair Lynn, Sam Phippen, Oliver Knott and Lilafisch.
