Escape From Radtown
Radtown is a radioactive mess. I mean, really; it's in the name. You want out, but the city's high walls and inexplicable moat of radioactive waste makes escaping a little tricky.
But you have a special power.
Using a mysterious mirror you can shift into the, uhm, Mirror World...ok I'mma level with you. This game was created for a 3 day game jam and the story does't make a whole lot of sense. Just go with it.
The jam in question was Aspect Manufacture's 1 Bit Weekend, where the restriction was to create a game using only two colours (at one time) using at least one of the following themes;
- Radioactive
- Reflections
- Dragons
So that's that. The controls are standard Pico controls (arrow keys and Z / X for actions), but there's a tutorial bit in the game. This was a lot of fun to make. It's not very long for obvious reasons, but I hope you enjoy it.

p8 file, possible?
congrats to 1st place!
Thanks!
Idk if it's just me, but every time I swapped the music restarted.
That's like the minor issue, the other parts of the game are cool
It's not just you. I ran out of time to figure that out (from what I did read, I'm not even sure it's doable in Pico-8). Thanks for playing.
Very nice game :P
Got stuck on the last level for a while lol
Thanks. And yeah I'll be honest I was struggling to think of level designs by that point without adding more game mechanics... which I didn't have time for >.<
Thanks for playing.
great game! i like the background and especially the music, though the environment seemed cluttered at some points and some of the jumps are weird/hard because of the physics
I may have gone a bit overboard on the art. I had a few hours spare at the end which wasn't long enough to add more game but it was long enough to spruce up the levels lol.
Thanks for playing.
