Introduction
Short Life is a 2D platform game where you control a character who overcomes deadly obstacles like spikes, mines, and swinging blades. The goal is to reach the end of each level with as few deaths as possible, earning a maximum of three stars based on performance. Its ragdoll physics and gory deaths add a bit of dark humor, similar to games like Happy Wheels.
How to play
- Controls: Use arrow keys (or WASD) to move, jump, and crouch.
- Objective: Guide your character through each level, avoiding traps and hazards to reach the finish line.
- Mechanics: Timing and precision are key. Crouch to slide under obstacles, jump over gaps, or stop to assess threats. Ragdoll physics means falls or hits can be unpredictable.
- Levels: Progress through increasingly complex stages, with checkpoints in some levels to reduce frustration.
- Scoring: Earn stars by completing levels quickly and with minimal deaths.
- Tips: Observe trap patterns, move cautiously, and expect trial-and-error to learn level layouts.
