Essentials

An experimental game, exploring what - if anything - is truly essential for a game.
'Essentials' is our entry for the Ubisoft Game Jam 2020. In the jam teams created games from scratch within 48 hours themed around the term "essential". We chose to apply the topic to games and asked ourselves the question: What is essential for a game?
The game was supposed to feature an audiocommentary in form of a recorded conversation about the topic, but due to time constraints we were only able to include the opening of the conversation.

You play a little spring exploring a bizarre world of desk utensils.

Controls:
Press and Hold Space to charge. Release in order to jump.
Use WASD/Arrowkeys while airborne in order to navigate.
