You can't stop bouncing, but you can steer left and right.
Space bar - respawn
F / A / Left Arrow - steer left
J / D / Right Arrow - steer right
Made for the GMTK 2020 game jam "Out of Control" but I missed the deadline. Polished it on a random weekend in 2023 and the rest is the future...
The original exe (BonkMaze2) ran very slowly on Steam Deck and didn't play sound through Proton 8.0-2, so I made two versions!
Version differences / out-of-the-box Steam Deck compatibility
- Each version runs on Windows and Steam Deck (via Proton)
- All versions play sound in Proton Experimental (as of 14th July 2023 23:45pm BST)
- BonkMaze1 is an earlier version which runs flawlessly on Steam Deck via Proton (except boing sound won't play via Proton 8.0-2)
