Karoot

Karoot is a game about little Rootiger, a tiny root that wants to escape the depths of the strangler  fig he lives in to reach the warm rays of the sun. Bit by bit the little root climbs up and encounters all sorts of enemies. Can our little friend reach its destination?

How to play:
You move little Rootiger with WASD, press SPACE to jump and SHIFT to root yourself into the ground  to not fall off the branches. If you wanna play on Smartphone you can use your virtual joystick.

Gameplay:

Reach the top!
Your goal as little Rootiger is to climb up the depths of a strangler fig to reach the sunlight. While you make your way to the top you gotta watch out for Mean Mosquitos, Spikey Shrooms, Gloomy Grasshoppers or Whirly Winds! Some Mushrooms give a boost and help you reach the top!

The game can be played on your smartphone, in your web browser or directly on your PC! Inspired by Kazoo songs, we created a jump´n ´run game with those funky sounds!

We are a bunch of students, brave enough to face the challenge of the Game Jam 2023!
