A one-button arcade game made for Trijam 66

Which ended up winning 1st place in Trijam 66! Thanks for that! :D

• R to restart
• Escape to close game (on Windows)
• F11 to toggle fullscreen (on Windows)

Theme

The themes I chose from Trijam 66 were:

• Hexagon
• Color Hex

Development

This game was made in just about 4.5 hours, rather lazily with no real inspiration or direction... I've been feeling a bit burnt out, but needed to force myself to make something.

I recorded the entire process which will be made available as a time-lapse video soon, where you can see how much time I wasted standing around, meandering aimlessly. Definitely not an efficient development process. At my most optimal development speed, I likely could make this exact same game in an hour or two if I was feeling more inspired and energized.

All ideas, design, code, assets, and builds were made from start-to-finish within the 4.5 hours, well under the 6 hour time limit for Trijam 66. I used Ecrett Music to generate the music and BFXR to generate the sound effects.
