sacrifices must be made

sacrifices must be made is a short pixel platformer about survival through loss.
you wake in a stone corridor where three shrines block the path forward. each shrine demands a sacrifice: food, sleep, or water. the doors will only open if you give something up.

creators: vidhula vikrenth, somya vijay, prajna anupam

choose your character

• prajzee (green) – has super vision, food drains slower

• somzii (pink) – can push through exhaustion, sleep does not drain

• vidzoo (blue) – can endure thirst, water does not drain

each character has one strength, but you will still need to make sacrifices to reach the end.

the shrines

• 🥖 food shrine – give up your strength, hunger will rise faster

• 🌙 sleep shrine – give up your rest, exhaustion will build quicker

• 💧 water shrine – give up your thirst, your body will dry out faster

how to play

• arrow keys / wasd → move and jump

• space → jump / confirm a sacrifice at a shrine

• survive across 3 levels. each one is harder than the last.

• you must sacrifice at least 2 things to open the final door. too few, and you will collapse.

the goal

reach the glowing door at the far end of the corridor. choose what you give up, and discover if you have what it takes to escape.
