Just in time for the spooky season, dev4play has released its comedic climbing game Dead Climb on Steam today. The game challenges players to move their undead corpse up a mountain with a mysterious goo that reanimates different body parts.
Prepare for the most dramatic and moving story in the world of climbing – ever. You climbed. You fell. You died. You were resurrected by The Mysterious Green Goo™.
Thanks to The Mysterious Green Goo™ your hands stick to the rock wall. To climb, you unstick, move and restick every hand separately, using your keyboard and mouse or gamepad.
Watch out for your Goo level. It decreases with every grip and also with time, so you’d better make every move count – just like in golf! Or something…
On your way to the top, you’ll also find glowing green mucus. Go for it to increase your Goo level.
When you catch the rhythm, you’ll be speeding along the rock walls, your character ragdolling like crazy. Make him dance, make him twitch, you can do it, there’s nothing to it!!
First of all, in Dead Climb you can choose your own path along the rock wall.
You can also choose from various mountains, character models and climbing modes. In Free Climbing mode you manage your Goo resource, but in Time Attack you have a time limit on top of that. Avoid Danger mode requires you to move sideways to avoid falling boulders. More moves use more Goo. Tactics!
