┏━━━----------✦❘༻༺❘✦----------━━━┓ THIS IS NOT AN AXOLOTL!! Olms are aquatic amphibians that live in deep underwater caves. Proteus anguinus is their scientific name, and as the longest living amphibian, they can live for up to 100 years! They are my favourite animal ever. - INSTRUCTIONS - ✦ Guide this olm through an underwater cave system. with your mouse. Where does it end? Nobody knows. ✦ Try to swim as far as possible without touching the dark cave walls. ✦ You have a personal high score (careful, it resets when you click the flag) and an ultimate high score that exists for all players. ✦ When you reach a certain personal high score, you will gradually unlock hats. The first hat is available at 50cm, but more will unlock as you explore further into the cave. ✦ Press space to change hats, or click the olm's head if you're on mobile :P ✦ Your score is visible in the top left as you play, but it's very faint as to not be distracting No face? No problem. Olms are completely blind and still manage to be effortlessly cool ✦ M to toggle music (sorry mobile users) Let me know if you find any bugs that I can fix!!! Olms were thought to be baby dragons when first discovered, but have other names such as cave salamanders or "human fish" What's your favourite amphibian? :D Thanks for playing, you beautiful, amazing person!! ┗-------------------------✦❘༻༺❘✦--------------------------┛
All art and coding by yours truly :) Music - Gritty Typewriter (After Dark) by Spoq From tribeofnoise.com Current High Score: @winterfrost09 with 380cm Of all the games I've made, this is probably the one I'm most proud of :D I love the art and the coding that went into it, and I love olms so I'm glad I could do them justice with this game. (I spent so many hours that should have been used on schoolwork to make this instead ._.) The ambiance was lightly inspired by my favourite platformer game, Cataractae by Ferociter (GO PLAY IT) Updates: 19 July - Added sine waves to make it actually look like it's swimming :3 24 July - Gradual speeding up to make it harder lol 5 August - Fixed bugs 26 August - Mobile hat toggle
