- Generalised light and shadow detection for enemy NPC detection.
- Movement puzzles, creature-shadow timing puzzles, switches, pressure plates, vents and drains, multi-room interactions, water (damage).
Extra Notes
Due to the time constraints of changing team members, much of the game could not be completed. However, the team all agreed that it's been a blast to work with each other regardless and thanks you all for hosting the game jam and encouraging everyone to go and make games.
All of us were complete beginners in game development and now we all have a small inkling of what it entails. So thank you for giving us this opportunity to participate and learn together. Without you, this team and I imagine many others would not have gotten together and built something awesome.
