Skeletons and Pencils

Overview: In Skeletons and Pencils, you take on the role of a clever 3D skeleton tasked with rescuing its trapped 2D counterpart. Switch between dimensions to outsmart levels, designing a path to freedom with creative tools and quick thinking. Your mission? Guide the 2D skeleton to the exit door by crafting a safe and clever route through a series of puzzling obstacles.

Gameplay:

• 3D Mode: Step into the 3D world to survey the level from a new perspective. Use your drawing tools to strategically place items and build a path for your 2D self to navigate. Plan carefully—spikes, gaps, and locked doors stand in your way!
• 2D Mode: Switch back to the 2D plane to take control of your flat skeleton. Test your newly designed path, bounce on springs, speed across treadmills, and leap over hazards to reach the door. Collect keys along the way to unlock barriers and progress.

Drawable Tools:

• Wood Block: A sturdy platform to bridge gaps or create steps. Your go-to building block for a solid foundation.
• Spring: Launches the skeleton high into the air—perfect for reaching elevated platforms, but beware of deadly spikes overhead!
• Treadmill: Propels the skeleton swiftly to the right with no chance to jump off. Use it to zoom past obstacles or crash into trouble—timing is everything.

Objective: Reach the exit door at the end of each level to advance. Some doors require keys hidden within the stage, so explore, experiment, and adapt your strategy to overcome every challenge. With dimension-switching mechanics and a mix of creativity and skill, Skeleton Switch offers a fresh twist on puzzle-platforming fun!
