Presenting Friday Night Death Slot, the only TV game show where our participants die for realsies! Play through six-second platforming challenges, while risking yourself and grabbing Audience Tokens to keep the ratings at bay in this frantic platformer! Also, prepare to die. A lot.


In a world where audience retainment is as low as it could be and the interest on TV is dropping at a rapid pace, a totally-not-evil television host sets out to create a new kind of game show - one accomodated to the audience's short attention span that adjusts to their reactions as it goes on. You, the contestant (slash victim), will need to act quick as you zoom past these production sets, getting to the exit, dying while you try to do so and collect Audience Tokens along the way to not lose the interest of the watchers at home - how many levels can you survive until your inevitable demise?


A controller is recommended for this game, as it has rumble features, D-pad support and it's in general the most optimal way to play platformers. Go get your XBOX gamepad! Also, scoreboard support is on early beta, so bear with us as we squash some bugs. If by any chance it doesn't work, restart your game and try submitting a score again - your best score will save from restart to restart.

HOW TO PLAY


You have two things to watch out for in Friday Night Death Slot: the timer and the audience-o-meter. You'll have six seconds to complete each room and you can die as many times you want as long as the Audience-O-Meter can support it, so don't be afraid to make mistakes!
Your Audience-O-Meter indicates how much of an audience you have on the TV show. This depletes a little bit over time or quite a lot if you die by obstacles, pits and time-outs, and you can refill it by collecting Audience Tokens, a.k.a those green thingies with the star on them. When the Audience runs out, it's game over, so make sure to go through as many levels as you can!

at least make the controls even easiler because trying to climb walls is complete painful

I have no Idea why its six seconds but It could've been 10 seconds at least.

Nice

So this game was kind of different and you bring on some really nice elements like great music fast response on the controls, gotta be on your toes on this game though, This game can really Thrive there might be some unnecessarily elements but overall it was all good.

~X~

I like the design and looks of the game but It's really difficult and janky, and theres a lot of really small hazards that you won't even see because of the really quick time limit, and the movement itself is weird and uncomfortable.

Overall, okay game. Would take too much time to get good enough to actually play the game, but it's a good challenge for anyone willing to try

hard bruh
