Crusty Skelltuns

Crusty Skelltuns is a game that you play, which features very crusty graphics and a strange sense of humor. You'll need to figure out the mechanics as you go, but at least the game will tell you what the controls are...?

Here's some bullet points about the game:

• Watch an unusually fast cactus!
• Run around a decently large (but not large large) space... platform... thing?
• New feature to the series: The radar! It isn't very helpful though...? (Or is it?!?)
• Probably some programming errors!
• Supposedly at least one cosmic lion! (I don't believe those rumors though.)

But what is it, really?

The screenshots were chosen specifically to be as non-spoilery as possible, while still generally showcasing the vibe of the game better than words can. If you aren't sure what kind of game you're getting into, please check out the screenshots.

If you still aren't sure, there's a trailer for the series as a whole! It is not specifically a trailer for this game, so as to help avoid spoilers for it due to the game's short length, but some footage of this game specifically is in the trailer.

Wait, there are other Skelltuns games? Do I have to play those first?

Technically, this is Skelltuns 3.5! But I've specifically made this game to be a valid starting point for the series! If you've never experienced a Skelltuns game before, this game features effectively no spoilers for past games, nor requires context from them to understand the main plot.

What should I know before playing?

The game isn't very long. I estimate many players will probably finish in about... 10 to 15 minutes, give or take...? Also , the game requires a keyboard and a mouse. Never both at the same time, but you will need to switch between them.

P.S. I realize I didn't have a link here for the other Skelltuns games during the jam. Here they are if you wanna play 'em! Probably after you've played this one, though...
