  • Move away from the terminal to cancel the popup prompt.

About:

I'm a solo developer and only had a day or 2 to make this game, although the game jam was 9 days long. Only a day or 2? Yup, wish I could do more of course, but I have a 2 year old, a 5 month old, and a full time job. With that said, I ran out of time to be able to finish this project as much as I would have liked, making it quite short. The fun part is submitting what you've accomplished, realizing that you DID make a large achievement, and reflecting on what you've learned in such a short time.

This is my second time participating in Manisha's Game Jams. This time I increased my skills making some sprites using Aseprite and creating the core structure of the game I wanted to make. I did improve my last game I made at her previous jam quite a bit: Sprung A Leak. I plan to do the same with this one: update and improve the game after the the jam, which includes better mechanics, gameplay, levels, and the ability to play on mobile devices. The skeleton is there, now I just need the time.

The game was so fun. 

I was able to finish the game. That stabalize platform mission was bit challenging.

I enjoyed playing with that little cute robot.

Thank you so much for playing and for your comments. I'm so glad you enjoyed my game too.
