Game:  Desert Jump & Run

Construct 2 .capx file

Design (what I set out to do):  

I wanted to create a frustrating platform game that makes fun at the same time. I got inspired by the game “Unfair Mario”, where platforms disappear when you touch them and you get restarted in the beginning of the level. Because of disappearing platforms i decided not to use lives which would make the player even more frustrated.

I wanted the game to play in the desert because I thought it would be something different to all the games with green nature settings.

What Didn't Get Done:  

The thing I’m most disappointed about what i didn’t get done was the end boss because i just run out of time and it wasn’t the most important  thing to get done. Another thing is moving platforms for the third level.

Biggest Challenge:  

The biggest challenge was I guess how to respawn the platforms after they disappear. The solution was pretty easy, I just had to put the different level in different layouts and after the player died I just had to give the command to restart the level, which took the possibility of having checkpoints.

What's Next:

If i had more time i would add moving platforms, an endboss and to be able to play the game on Android or IOS.
