A downloadable game for Windows

About

Cosmic Conundrum is a puzzle platformer game I made for the Minigame a Month February 2024 game jam. In the game you play as a group of aliens working together to forage food in the caverns of a distant planet.

Due to time constraints I haven't been able to add everything I wanted such as more levels and alien types, but if people enjoy the game I'm happy to update it at a later date.

----------------------------------------------

How To Play

  1. Upon starting a level, click on one of the orange aliens to select them.
  2. Once selected the alien can be ordered with the controls listed below.
  3. Once you are happy with the orders you have given to the alien, press C to confirm them. 
  4. The aliens will then all be moved back to their starting positions.
  5. Then select a different alien to control, while controlling this one, aliens that have previously been controlled will repeat all their actions.
  6. You can press E to interact with eyeballs causing vines to shift.
  7. Utilise all of the aliens provided to navigate the levels and reach the food!
