Gameplay

Observatory 85 is a difficult climbing platformer inspired by "White Knuckle". This game was made in 72 hours during Ludum Dare 60 for the theme of "Old Tech".

Much like White Knuckle, you must manage your stamina for each hand as you climb throughout the level. If you run out of stamina, your tired hand will let loose, potentially causing you to fall at the most inopportune time. While I tried to tune the level design to be relatively generous, this game is not for the faint of heart. Beware, rage lies within.
