Going the Distance 007: It’s Dangerous to Go Alone

Doug Fiala is back with his second submission, and we’re keeping the Zelda theme going because Skyward Sword is simply that good. In Going the Distance, our main character, “You,” has to manage to make his way to delicious cake. Sounds simple, right? But there are deadly spikes to deal with, and a host of other problems that appear each time. Let’s just say You fails more often than You succeeds.
