One Two Start

Description:

One Two Start it's a game in which you control a beginning runner. Your main objective is to achieve running 5km. At first, you'll be very slow and rapidly get tired, but since you continue to start over again, you'll gain more resistence and speed.

Controls:

Action	KeyBoard	Joystick
Sprint	Hold Left Shift	Hold LB
Pause	P	Start
Ground Slide	Z	A
Jump	Space	Y
Menu Navigation	Mouse or Arrow Keys	D-Pad
Confirm	Mouse Left Click or Enter	A

Progression:

Every time you beat your own distance record, you'll get 20% more speed and 3 stamina points permanently. If you don't beat your record in a run, you'll even gain 1 stamina point. So since you continue to try, you'll get better and better. The more fast you get, more you'll can jump longer to reach platforms you couldn't in first days.

Context:

This is the game I made for my first game jam. It's the Shovel Game Jam 2025. The idea for the game is based on my own experience running every day with my dad and brother, so I tried to simulate that experience on this game. I hope you enjoy!
