Bjørnstigen
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
A map for Venzone by Francesco A.
Bjørnstigen is a real adventure, rendered into an ASCII-platformer level.
This tour is a tough one: Giant Mountains, dense vegetation, wild river-areas, tense stories and various options. It is probably one of the most beautiful and most spectacular routes that you can hike here on Itch.
Rather exotic for the genre, Bjørnstigen is primarily focused on narration: Obstacles, difficult situations, and the flow of the level design are used as tools to convey emotions and ideas. But still, it is directed to experienced players, and playing the original game is very recommended before tackling it.
Thanks to FA for making Venzone, and thanks to AD for going up (and coming down) those mountains with me.
Bjørnstigen was created for the Venzone24 project. Venzone is licensed as GPLv3; the Bjørnstigen map and the additional files (located under extra) are licensed as CC-BY-SA 4.0.
Have fun.
