In Fathom your mission is to penetrate the enemies secret lair buried deep inside a volcano and retrieve the stolen plans. Collect USB drives of enemy plans for bonus points on each level.
Your agent is armed with only his glide suit and his wits in this hardcore platformer.
Arrow Keys or D-PAD to move.
Z or B button to Jump - press again to glide slowly.
While gliding, press X or the A button to boost briefly upwards.
Get to the bottom of each level to get to the next.
Good luck! Feedback welcome.
This is great! Keep up the good work! I made it all the way to the level that was just a single platform with spikes most of the way across the right (level 6 or so?). Looked like it was uncompletable, so that must be how far you've gotten so far. Took a LOT of tries to get there :D
Great, thanks! The levels so far are really just experiments, with the last two especially being super hard as a bit of an experiment on what was possible.
Hoping to complete this one fairly quickly over the next couple weeks!
The first new level is insane! I made it so close to the end! This game is addicting. Great progress, man!
I'll do a few more levels this weekend hopefully ;)
With getting all collectibles - here's my best time so far for levels completed:
Those new levels were BRUTAL! I missed one suitcase, I think. It was the one on the second to last level. New stats:
Wow. I'm impressed you finished! I wanted to rage quite a few times myself- ha. I just tweaked the last level, moved that second parachute power up one cell closer.
Yeah that second parachute was definitely a killer. Probably almost half my deaths were just trying to get it, lol!
In the newest update, I couldn't get past I think it was the 1000m level. Whichever one is the one with like 7 or 8 parachutes and you have to go in like a Z pattern. I even uploaded it to my site so I could try it with an Xbox 360 controller, but didn't have any luck there, either (to be fair, the Xbox 360's d-pad is probably the worst thing in the world for this kind of game... the d-pad is horrible and inaccurate).
Yeah it's tough- the key is at about the 4th to 5th parachute to press X and hold (boost) right to the roof.
But it took me like 40 - 50 times there to get it at least.
I think it's too early in the game for that difficulty, so I'll tweak that level in 1-2 spots to make a bit easier.
updated level 10- I made the middle part of it a bit easier (I think ;)
with latest build and the updates to all the levels- here's my current best. I missed one USB key.
