Growing Places (GWJ Submission)
About
Submission for Godot Wild Jam #36
Theme: "Uncontrollable Growth"
Wildcards used: "Physician, Heal Thyself"
I took the theme a bit literal and decided to make a top-down action-puzzle game where your character is constantly growing. This presented many interesting technical problems to solve. I had a really fun time with this jam and learned A LOT more about Godot in the process.
Controls:
- Up/Down arrows or W/S for menu selection
- Enter/Space for menu confirmation
- Arrows or WASD for movement
- R to restart a level
- ESC to return to menu (WARNING this will not save your progress and you will have to start the game over)
Things I wished I'd had the time to do/add:
- Low-vision mode/assistance (this entire game is unfortunately identified by color and I did not have time to go through and add accessibility options)
- More levels
- 2 or 3 more mechanics to allow more complex levels
- Improve door system so that there could be multiple to unlock in a single level
- Levels that were bigger than the screen (this was a decision that was made to save time)
- Some SFX and Music would have been nice too
