JG#36 - Another World: Near-Death Experience

Near-Death Experience is a 2D action/adventure atmospheric game created in the frame of the Jame Gam #36. I hope you will enjoy the game.

Tips : You should prefer to play with windows or linux versions for better performance and pleasure. Futhermore, the web version  does not render some shaders correctly as well as some letters. Web version is available if needed. At the moment, the file is hidden.

The theme of the game jam is "Another World". The special object is a candle.

My another world is the location between hell and Earth. Near the Styx and Charon. The candle is a symbol of the time running out.
