This weekend, I participated in a gamejam event, where people come together to make a game in 30 hours.
The themes to choose from were fire and connected worlds, so we did both. We made a simple metroidvania-style game where you try to find eight MacGuffins across two worlds. In order to find all eight, you will need to visit both worlds and collect several items.
Water will drown you, but once you find the freeze ray, you can use it to freeze the water and walk across it. The flamethrower can make water evaporate and burn wood. The high-jump flip-flops come in handy for those tall jumps.
If you want to give it a go, you can download it for windows here. I wrote some of the code and did the level layout, so you can blame me for the bugs and jumping puzzles 😛
Here’s a video playthrough of the game — don’t watch if you want to explore the game on your own.
Awesome, robby! If you let me I will do a better game using that code. Can I?
“Nice game! Now watch as I do exactly the same thing, but better in every way!”
>_>
The code is very hacktastic as we wrote it very quickly — it should not be used as a basis for any project 😛
We need that freeze ray for 8bit! :p
Looks a nice game too I will try it later.
^^^^^^agreed^^^^^^^^^^^^
Digging the soundtrack
Am I the only one who needed to look around to find Sim? That hair is definitely not what I was expecting.

RobbyZ in the recent blog posts, you keep including pics of Fan Art! I know we talked about it and I just could NEVER figure out how to post the pics in an imgur album, please name a Fan Art section, and tell me album instructions.
Looks nice.
Didn’t quite work in Wine heh.
