Description

Langman = hangman + platforming. Enjoy sixteen levels of word and physics puzzles, along with a nostalgic soundtrack.

(This is an early prototype of Plangman.)

How to Play

Your goal is to guess the word or phrase represented by dashes at the top of the screen.

Use the arrow keys (or WASD) to move and jump.

Use the space bar to select letters and drop blocks.

= = = =

To mute the music/sfx, press V.

To reset a level, press R.

To skip a level you have previously beaten, press L.

To use a bomb you have collected, press B. Bombs can be used to destroy blocks or dropped letters. They come in handy if you accidentally drop a block onto a letter that you need, or if you want to take a shortcut through a puzzle.

This adds a new aspect to hangman. Used to be that you could just guess letters. Now you guess letters just because you can get to them. Difficult at times, but easier at others. 4/5.

So it's hangman...But more difficult because it has cleverly designed platformer levels, awesome nostalgia music, and to top it off it has physics? Genius. Purely genius. I love how you have to be careful which blocks you hit because you might not have any bombs...Great game.

I hate it when I know the answer, but I can't reach the right letters. Does anyone else ever have this problem? Or is it just me?
