The Intergalactic Trashman

The Intergalactic Trashman mixes a 2D platform game with a space exploration one. This combination of different game mechanics is its strong point: The game achieves a ‘sandbox’ vibe in a 2D game, a sensation of continuity, cohesion and hugeness.

This is a tech-demo, there are a lot of bugs (sometimes tutorial pop-ups disappear and music/sounds don’t work properly) and an important part of the game is missing: THE SPACE. We hope you keep that in mind when you check out this demo.

We'll release new revisions because there is a lot of stuff that needs to be improved. So keep an eye out for new updates!

• If you want to do a ‘dash punch', you need to jump first, and then you need to use your jetpack aimed down (D+L).

• If you do a quick launch, the grenade will explode as soon as it hits with an enemy or with the floor.

• If you do an aimed launch, the grenade will explode after few seconds and it will do damage to Kepler.

• A mine will stick in the impact point and then it will activate itself after a short period of time.If an enemy goes by too close when the mine is on, it will explode.
