Game Description

You’re stuck in a cave filled with dangerous amphibians, find a way to escape! 

There are two special features of this game:

  1. It works with a game controller if one is installed, meaning that it could also work on any device that has a controller, such as a phone.
  2. The graphics were all drawn by the author!

Putting in the animations and getting them to do what I want. You might be able to tell that they still sometimes don’t do what I want >:(

Game Unfinished Component

I think I did pretty well on doing most things I wanted to, but there's some more animations that I would have liked to put in, like the player needs a jump animation.

Game Next Steps

I think I would want to make more levels or just expand the level currently there so there's more stuff to actually play.

Game Description

I wanted to create a game with an end objective, that requires exploring a map and collecting tokens through a variety of interactions. The player seeks to escape through a locked door, collecting tokens by exploring, entering portals, and fighting monsters in order to access the trapped key and exit the level.

It took the most effort to create portals, because the player has to exit the portal in a location close to-- but not identical to-- the matching portal in order to avoid re-entering the portal once more. It took a while to figure out appropriate distances and locations to allow for the best positioning of the player.

Game Unfinished Component

I wanted to make the game playable with WASD, and make the game reset upon player death.

Game Next Steps

I would add another level that would be accessible once the door is unlocked.

This platforming game you pic up the 3 hidden gems to win the game. If you fall 5 times you lose. I made this challenging to make the jumps because it is rather basic.

Game Challenges

I struggled to code many of the ideas i had because of this being a new platform for me.

Game Unfinished Component

I wanted to make the game more detailed with more jumps to make. Also i wanted to make it with more levels and make it slightly more maze-like but it was challenging to do this in the timeframe given.

Game Next Steps

I would make another level and have the one I already made be the practice level. Also I would have added enemies and made it more Mario- like.

This super challenging game might be the most fun you have ever had!  I especially like the sunlight sparkling on the endless sea.

Go far enough and the background changes.  The best part?  You can't lose!

This platform game has foliage! Some you can walk on, some you walk through, but all of it green and beautiful. Also to be appreciated are the sloped pathways and don't miss the hidden room full of gems and coins to collect!

This variation of the platform game is fun... look at all of those snails! Can you feel them crunching under your feet? And look out for falling snails, I understand they can be a real problem this time of year!

The addition of a new type of enemy adds some excitement! The layout is quite large and enjoyable, with coins to collect, sloped ground, and walk-through tiles.

This platform game has been enhanced by the addition of stars to collect. The layout is quite good. Can you collect 10 stars before the snails destroy you?

Game Description

This platform jumper and shooter has some very unique elements. The bad guy is the QuinnHead that shoots lips at you, and there are invulnerable enemies that mimic your movements. Big blue platforms move in a set pattern. The custom artwork is avant-guarde and is sure to question the reality juxtaposed upon you as player.
