Unfair Cave Platformer: A Tricky and Deceptive Adventure

Embark on a deceptively tricky adventure in Unfair Cave, a platformer that lives up to its name by incorporating intentionally “unfair” mechanics. Navigate through challenging levels where hidden blocks are both your greatest ally and your worst enemy.

Core Gameplay & Unique Mechanics

Leap onto or around these concealed platforms to reach otherwise inaccessible areas, but beware—some may unexpectedly block your path, requiring clever backtracking and exploration. A unique feature is the ability to reveal secret exits by simply touching the walls, encouraging thorough investigation of every nook and cranny.

Controls & Key Details

Control your character with the intuitive arrow keys for precise movement. Importantly, the environmental spikes are purely decorative and pose no lethal threat, allowing you to focus on the real puzzle-platforming challenges.

Development & Credits

Created as a special entry for the “Scratch’s Got Talent” contest, this project draws inspiration from other creative works. It features original artwork and coding by the developer, complemented by the atmospheric Dream Trance track “Lights” by DJ Striden.

Unfair Cave offers a fresh and mischievous twist on classic platforming, perfect for players seeking a test of skill, patience, and observation beyond standard jumping challenges.
