Jex

A Gex fangame done in a week for GexJam 2024, try to find all the remotes! (psst TVs are warps and so are cabin doors). Download for better graphics/lighting! Mac build is untested.

Concept, Jex model & lines, and fantasy map by SPG (https://spg.itch.io/)
Code, voice, and camp map by me

Edit on 2 Dec 2024: Some refinements and polish are being made to the fantasy level and the movement mechanics, but they probably won't be done for a while. Hopefully we can get the wall-crawling to be cool and good!

Abilities:

Tail bounce - hold jump while in the air to bounce higher when landing

Tongue Grapple - Hold right click then left click when reticle is red to grapple to that point. Only some surfaces are grabbleable. 

Wall climb - press F when facing a climbable surface. Indicator on bottom of screen tells you when you can climb. Jump or F to stop climbing.

Controls:

wasd - movement

space - jump

mouse - camera

esc - pause (Twice in web version. Can exit level to hub from here)

F11/alt+enter - fullscreen toggle

shift - tailwhip

hold right click - aim

left click while aiming and reticle is red  - tongue grapple

hold jump while in the air - tail bounce

f - climb toggle on some surfaces. See indicator on middle bottom of screen

e - make jex say a line

There's also a secret test level you can find (its pretty boring though)

If you get an error saying the .pck is missing for the html version, try refreshing.
