## Description

Design, implement, and polish a 2D playable prototype that fits one (or more—combinations encouraged) the gameplay mechanic of "platformer" or "puzzle". See below for LOTS of examples—this is intended more as a guide than a constraint. There are a lot of directions you could take it.

### Defining Prototype 

So, what is a prototype? A couple definitions:

1. A basic game mechanic with visual polish (a more visually-oriented prototype).

2. A working demo/playground with a more advanced implementation of a game mechanic.

### Adhering to the Theme

For this project, unlike the last, there is no *conceptual* constraint. This is more of a genre or formal or mechanical constraint—make a game that fits the "[platformer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platform_game)" or "[puzzle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puzzle_video_game)" genre or does something in between, in combination of, or in addition to those two. Like previous projects, we encourage you to focus on one or two core game mechanics to prototype. Here are some games that would be good fits for this prompt (because they are quite simple in their interactions but add interest/complexity by combining those simple ingredients in new ways):
