Be Fast to Last
A downloadable game
An endless first-person, movement indie game made for Brackey's 2025.1 game jam
You alone are tasked with maintaining a ship designed for a crew of 30. Failing tasks causes the ship to take damage. You will have less time to complete tasks the more of them you fail. However To make matters worse, the ship gradually falls apart no matter what you do. And the android overseeing you may not be very forgiving... Complete tasks to maintain the ship for as long as possible! How long can you survive?

Mechanics
- If you jump on top of an enemy, they will be destroyed.
- Dash: Input the dash while mid-air. You will dash in whatever direction you are inputting, not just where you are looking.
- Slide: Run forward until you build up enough speed and then press the crouch/slide input. Jump out of this at the right time to get the most speed/distance.
- Wall Climb: Run forward whilst facing a wall. Your vertical acceleration wanes as you climb and returns over time while you are not climbing. You cannot wall climb after a wall bounce until you touch the ground again.
- Wall Bounce: Whilst climbing, hold jump
- Wall Run: Whilst climbing, face parallel to the wall. It is much faster to move diagonally into the wall.
- Air Strafe: Develop at least some speed, then let go of the forward input and instead hold a sideways input while very gradually looking in that direction. You will be able to accelerate beyond the maximum speed you could otherwise achieve through running alone. You can alternate directions to go in a relatively straight path.
