Sleepy Stone
About
- This game requires a controller to play and was made with an xbox controller but a dual shock should work as well. -
Originally the plan was to make a 3d platformer that removed a lot of the movement control player’s expect from the genre. Taking a heavy character like a stone and giving it movement in it’s dream. On a whim I added the mechanics of rolling and using momentum to spring the character forward or up with great force and found it to be a lot of fun. This ended up changing all my plans for the original 3 - 4 levels and switching to developing levels on the fly.
Although buggy I think this was a successful attempt to create something a little different from the traditional 3d platformer and it shows some promise. It does need a lot of refinement though and I would like to see a better return to my first intent of using the project to practice with visual storytelling.
I need to add in some features like better tutorializing, keyboard and mouse control, and a tighter gameplay but I expect that I will return to this project sooner rather than later.
