Cool little game! Its impressive that you are making games at a very young age! Everything there is to say, has already been said by people in the comments below, so take them into consideration. That being said, I think you did a good job!

Thank you for playing! I will try and add the suggestions from the comments.

Here are some thoughts on how you can improve your game:

  1. The jump is a little bit floatty, which makes it both weird to control and easy to land wherever you want to go. Make it snappier by adding more gravity for example, and maybe reduce air control.
  2. Adding sounds and music helps a lot to make a game feels more finished. I guess you didn't have time, but if you want to continue working on this I think you should definitely start with that.
  3. I collected items but had no clue what they were supposed to do for me. I guess the sword was supposed to help me fight the big guy at the end, but I couldn't find how. A small line like the one you wrote as tutorial at the beginning would have helped.
  4. I died to that boss without any idea how it happened. I guess I took damage, but nothing on the screen told me that. There are simple ways to communicate this, like flashing the character red or playing a sound.

This is still very impressive for someone so young, I hope you'll continue on this path and make great games in the future!

Thank you for playing my game! I will try and fix these problems in the future. Also the items you pick up will give you extra health it is just that the hearts(health) are not seen this was a bug when I converted the build to webGL.

Really good idea! The jumping was legit challenging. I made it to the boss, but wasn't really sure what to do? XD Just kinda kept jumping over him and running off the screen.

I think this is a really good start, and its really cool that you want to get into video game programming from a young age! 

Some background music and simple jumping noises could have really uppeed the polish for this game! But dont be disheartened! Brackeys has a great tutorial on adding noises which you should have a go at next time :) Also i use a great website for (mostly) royalty free sounds which is a great resource!

Really well done for your level of experience. I was only dreaming of game dev at your age. Congratulations on your first  game jam submission.

I thought your game was pretty good, but felt a little bit floaty and slow to respond. Spend some time playing with your velocity, acceleration and friction values. There are thousands of platformers out there so you really have to nail satisfying movement to stand out from the crowd.

Once again congrats and keep making games! I have only recently started making them again but wish I never stopped!

Developer

Hello! I will try to change the movement next time. Thank you for playing my game!

Submitted

Enjoyed it! Would tweak the movement - it's slightly too slippery- but otherwise good! Good job.
