Out of Fuel (Demo)
Plot
Before the events of the game, a boy has run out of fuel during a jetpack flight to his home city, crash-landing in a forest. He must use any fuel he can find to traverse the landscape and return home!
How to Play
Instructions are provided in-game for keyboard control.
If you would like to use a controller, feel free, but note that we haven't been able to test the control scheme yet. Please let us know if there are any improvements we could make!
- Use the left stick to move left and right
- Use the shoulder buttons to hop
- Use Y (Xbox), X (Nintendo), or △ (PlayStation) to sprint
- Use B (Xbox), A (Nintendo), or ◯ (PlayStation) to fly
- Move the left stick downwards to supersprint
- Use Start (Xbox), + (Nintendo), or Options (PlayStation) to reset
Note: We're still working on the game -- the graphics are not final, and there are only ten levels. Join our Discord server to stay posted on the latest developments! https://discord.com/invite/n63Z87HXHK

I played the game for almost 20 minutes(i know this is a very short time) and here's my opnion:
(Note: I'm not good at reviewing games)
1. The game have a complex control system
It's not really complex, but like, W and UP Arrow and Space Bar are yes good for jumping, idk how to explain what i want to say, but i got confused that the Space Bar is the only jumping method that doesn't waste fuel and it's unnoticeable this mechanic. Also i almost forgot to use Sprinting, but this is just me being noob
2. Is that level possible to beat?
I got stucked at Level 4(i don't remember if it was Level 4). The level is like:
2 Fuel rechargers on the beggining and you need to go up.
There's on part that i can't go up, there's no fuel recharger next to me, it's impossible!
I know that i played the game for a very short time and i'm not so good at game reviewing, i give this gane 5.5/10
Thanks for your feedback!
We're definitely working on improving the control scheme for future versions!
could you make jumping and flying use seperate buttons?
i keep running out of fuel...
Actually, there are separate buttons! Pay close attention to the in-game tutorial.
We're working on a better way to communicate the controls, though!
Not a bad game, didn't get a chance to play it during the jam.
Good to see you're continuing working on it!
Thanks! We're looking at launching a full demo soon.
Looking forward to that!
