Shattered City: Magnitude 9.0

A game jam entry I made with about 2-3 weeks worth of work. It's inspired by one of my favorite series of games, Zettai Zetsumei Toshi or Disaster Report/ Raw Danger/ SOS: The Final Escape elsewhere. It's about 10-15 minutes long, and shouldn't be that difficult. Custom pixel art by me and character portraits done by cloudxx09 (https://twitter.com/cloudxx09).


STORY:
You are visiting a foreign country for the first time when a strong earthquake occurs. The only way to the closest evacuation zone is across a damaged bridge, which the player will have to move around obstacles, fires, and the many aftershocks of the earthquake the night before. Players will have to be on their toes for the quick timed events as well. Getting the quick timed events right helps the player brace themselves during aftershocks. If the player doesn't brace themselves during aftershocks, they can get knocked down or worse fall off the bridge and die.



Controls:
- Arrow Keys to move
- Z button accept/interact
- X button menu
- Shift to dash
- F4 full screen
- F5 reset

Hoping to get some feedback on the quick time events, it's hard to gauge their difficulty as the dev and any suggestions or comments are very welcome. Also welcoming feedback on the screen shaking in the game. I know there's black areas that appear when the screen shakes, still trying to find a way to get rid of those black areas.

There's no "Survival" tag, so I just put it under the "Horror" tag.
