Urban Nightmare

Free parkour game can be finished in 10 mins. Idk why I added it to my library but since I did I gave it a try. There’s a huge gap between broken bridges, I didn’t realize sliding could give me extra speed to jump farther, that was the only part stopped me. Only 5 short maps are available, all are made of basic jumps and wall runs. Devs should add a global or at least local leaderboard to encourage players to replay levels, and there should also be a key mapping in the options so I'd know R to reset when I fail instead of waiting for the system to detect. A restart button to replay a level would also be helpful. [u] [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/43342176-Why-Not-Games/#browse] My curator page[/url][/u]

Eh

Really cool, short parkour game, with a bit of a creepy flair. The horror elements are very light, with just a tense/grungy atmosphere and occasional creepy eyes, until the last level which ramps it up a bit, but not too much. The physics are generally smooth, but hitting at the occasional weird angle can really mess you up, leaving you to shout things like: "Why didn't you grab the ledge you idiot? It was right there!", "Why do I have so much momentum?! SLOW DOWN!!" "What are you doing you dumb ************?!?!?" The last level especially has lots of accurate jumps you need to make in a hurry. But at no point did I think "This is impossible" or want to quit. There aren't enemies until near the end, so your only threats are falling to your doom, and your own internal despair at realizing you suck at parkour. [spoiler] ...and some buildings at the end collapsing as soon as you step on em [/spoiler] I cleared the regular mode, and the Lost Footage in about 30min, so their "15 min experience" tagline is right on the money. Had a really fun run! Kinda want to try more parkour games in weird environments now.

I feel like this game was made by 8 yo Timmy, who later borrowed 100 bucks from his mom to publish it here.
