Postmortem

I learned a lot from this game jam. I'd never used Godot before, and I've learned that I love that engine more than anything I've used previously. It just made sense to me. Unfortunately, due to the time crunch, there were things that slipped through the cracks. Here's some stuff I'd like to improve:

• Level difficulty
• Sound effects (the music is slappin' though)
• More levels
• More interaction and obstacles on the levels

The levels are pretty basic as they are. All of the mechanics are there though to create more advanced levels. I will likely release a v2.0 using the same framework I built.

TODO

• Create initial assets
  • Tilemap for levels
  • Frame texture for main GUI
  • Button texture

  • Arrow Indicator
