Night at the mausoleum
In this 2D puzzle platformer, you're a skeleton whose main goal is to escape a mausoleum and regain your skin and identity! As a skeleton, you can remove your bones to change your size and play style, and use them as weights, all in the name of solving puzzles. Do you have what it takes?
Two begineers decided to create a game for gamejam.

Wow, I love this idea. I feel like the puzzle possibilities are of the charts. I love that the movement is hampered by the bones you choose to remove! A really solid entry, well done!
love the concept, I could not get past the room that says, "Some Buttons need more weight"
I think I understand that I need to get the two legs that are on the top of the pillars onto the buttons... but I could not get it to work, I tried standing on the left most button and using that block as a ram to try to hit the bones as they were falling, but to no avail. I also thought I could take my own legs off and replace them with the other legs, but I couldn't haha.
a nice entry. I do love the idea, its well executed. well done.
Indeed, this level is one of the harder ones. Let me clarify, There are three bones in the map, two on platforms and one on the left side of the map. All of them are left legs so u need to think about moving the bones in order, (Thats why u think u cant pick them up)
U can bump one of the bones with the button, and the other bone on the platform u can reach with enough speed so u can pick it up.
I suggest you try again, there are much more better levels awaiting after this one!
Thanks for the feedback, it seems that this level is slightly too complicated. 👌
makes sense! thanks for the explanation, I just assumed i couldn't do anything with the legs on the ground after not being able to use them. maybe a small "L" & "R" above them would negate that confusion. I will try again :)
