About The 13th Door

"The 13th Door" is a point and click animated adventure game written for the 2024 js13kGames contest. You can also use the items in your inventory by clicking on them and then clicking on the thing you want to use it on. You control Pip, who has Triskaidekaphobia, the fear of the number 13.

The 13th Door was submitted to the js13kGames 2024 competition by Lance Ewing. It earned competition recognition. Like every js13k entry, the entire game — code, art, and audio — fits in 13 kilobytes, a constraint that rewards focused, clever design over bulk. His doctor has recommended a session within the "Exposure Therapy" escape room as a way to cure his fear.
