Cliffside Sacrifice for Playdate
A downloadable game
Cliffside Sacrifice is a physics-inspired arcade puzzle game where the player controls a team of tethered climbers attempting to ascend a cliff by swinging, launching, and catching new pivot points. Progress requires careful timing, mastery of pendulum motion, and strategic sacrifice of climbers to reach difficult pivots.
The game interprets the jam theme "Pay to Win" as paying with sacrifice—discarding parts of your team to overcome otherwise impossible obstacles. Levels are tall vertical cliffs. The climbers start near the top and must swing and launch their way downward, moving with gravity to reach goal pivots near the bottom of the level.
