✨ Escalar is a precision platformer experience where you have zero air control when you jump! As well as jumping, you'll also need to climb, grapple and avoid enemies that wander the tower!
✨ Make your way up a mysterious tower and explore environments filled with traps, hazards and gems! Along the way you'll encounter all sorts of characters, some with questionable motives...
Previously played Escalar at events like EGX or WASD? Here's some of the main changes since then! 👇
- There is now a specific key for climbing instead of jumping to climb.
- Grenade key no longer needs to held down, instead you press the key twice - once to equip and once to shoot the grenade.
- Tutorial signs that teach you game controls for mechanics!
- Pause Menu with Controls and a reset to checkpoint if you get stuck anywhere!
- Grenade pickup to limit the number of grenades you can carry (displayed under the Gem Counter)
- Removed Charge Jump upgrade from Burlar's Bazaar
- New climbable vines added to replace previous climbing wall.
- Floating enemies added to the last level of the demo.
Thanks for reading and we hope you enjoyed playing the demo!! We'll have lots more to share on Escalar soon! In the meanwhile you can check out our socials or join our Discord server (not quite launched yet, but we're accepting users!)
