The biggest challenges were designing the enemies and making the platform movement work for my game

  • Getting my game to work with controller

A bug moves across the screen and you need to keep it between the green and blue bars in order to pass the level. It progressively gets harder and slightly faster.

Making the code short and easier to edit.

Game Unfinished Component

More variance in screens. I only have two different versions, it would be nice to have more.

Game Next Steps

Maybe a character selection or a game menu. Something more interactive on top of the game itself. Like a shop and coins you collect.

I wanted to create a Mario like game where you need to collect coins. You are a small elf that needs to hop from platform to platform to collect coins. Don’t fall or you will have to restart!

Game Challenges

The most challenging aspect of this game was coding the layouts to change. I troubleshooted a lot by adding buttons/sprites that the user could click. I found that coding the layouts changing inside the event when the player gets to the end was the easiest option.

Game Unfinished Component
  • I wanted to add a button to the end of the game that would allow the player to restart at the beginning. 
  • I also wanted to add a monster that would shoot at the player. I coded everything for the monster, but I wasn't able to get it to walk back and forth. I could only make it change directions once and fall off the edge.
Game Next Steps

If I had another week to work on this, I would add 

  • Add another level
  • Add a monster that would track the player's location and shoot at them.
  • Code a flying monster

Probably making each of the steps work separately, like finding gems, then transitioning to keys, and then the flag.

Game Unfinished Component

I wanted to add another level, but it got time consuming and complicated.

Game Next Steps

I would try to add a hidden vision area, so when you enter the caves you can only see a limited area, like a flashlight

Making the cameras work so they would follow the player and not get spotted when hiding behind platforms. (You will understand when you see them)

Game Unfinished Component

The boss wasn’t as finished as I would have liked.

Game Next Steps

I would have made an ending to the boss and add more mechanics to the tutorial and use those mechanics in the boss fight.

I wanted it to be an exploration game where you run around and collect different gems and whatnot to get yourself to the end and find your way through the mazeish world I created.

  • The little spider gremlins. They were annoyed to get to work.
  • The background I drew also took like 10 years to make.
Game Unfinished Component
  • I was going to make a second level but I just didn't have enough time. 

  • I also wish I put more of a story line into it.. I feel like its missing some stuff here and there.

Game Next Steps

Probably the second level ^^
