Welcome to a world of endless, interconnecting pipes! Danger lurks around every corner; fight the monsters of the sewer to save the slime sprites from a horrendous and dark evil!

So, you may be asking: 'Hmm... This sounds familiar, where have I heard of this before?' The answer is, from the mind of Demonlemon - he made up all of the ideas! You can find out more from his blog here!: http://s15.zetaboards.com/TCOTL/blog/main/115613/

Why am I making this game? Well, I feel Albert has been awesome to us - with this site, drawings and generally great personality - so I feel the need to give him something back! Something he's wanted for a long time - this game.


So, what exactly have you done? Err... Well I started on the engine - I didn't want to do too much in case Albert didn't want me to continue with this.

Have a bare bones screenshot!:

Yeah, it's not exactly eye candy yet...

Also have a download!:
GMK 8.0: Here
EXE: Here

The controls are:
Right, left to move in their respective directions. Double tap them to run.
Down to duck, left and right to crawl.
Shift to jump.
F2 to restart.
F3 to show debug info.

Features:
. Variable jumping!
. Double tap running!
. Crawling!
. Filler Sprites!
. Source access - fully commented!
. Debug!

Coming features to the next update
. Attacks - fists and wrench!
. Customisable controls!
. Sound effects (prolly fillers)!
. Damage/health!

Thanks for playing and stuff! If you guys wanna help, I'd REALLY appreciate it - especially in spriting (sorta my weakish point...)!
So expect more soon if Albert approves!

Cheers~

Thanks, guys. Really appreciate your offer, Connor, I'm really glad you want to help. :D However, there is one thing, Albert, I need your help for designs and stuff - since I guess you know exactly what sort of characters/places you want. It'd be a huge help if you could, please!

Well I was also gonna work on the soundtrack... Also all the sound effects, etc. !
Also, one thing, should the soundtrack be done in surround sound instead of stereo? It's usually pretty easy to do and can really add to the atmosphere!

Also, here is EXACTLY what I learnt from Albert: In Notepad Format! (WARNING: Some spoilers!)

Also, thanks for all your support and help offers! It really means a lot and your all welcome to help! Thanks a tonne!~
