Last build for Improve My Game Jam 36


In the last 2 days I made plenty of fixes.

I finally fixed the viewport and was able to add the basic GUI. I needed 2 strings, one with a description of the closest object in the map and one describing the item you are currently holding. I don’t know what was wrong with the viewport. I was touching all rendering options and I was always getting glitches with the pixels. Then I redid the whole viewport from scratch and it seems to work fine.

For the gameplay point of view not many changes. I’ve moved some elements around to make the easier to target. For example objects nearby ladders were hard to interact with because the character kept going up the ladder instead.

The game now if playable end to end so I’m happy with the current state. When the last level (7) is completed the player ends up in a large sandbox level that contains almost all objects and is not solvable.

The following tasks are left for the future:

  • There is no animation when using ladders. The character just teleports to the other end.
  • I didn’t implement the idle animation when the player didn’t move for a few seconds.
  • Sound effects and music are missing.
  • Title screen, level selection menu and credits are missing.
  • A screen showing the title of each level missing.
  • In the original game there was an special item that only appeared when the player had restarted a level a few times that would give hints.
