Hi! I'm Shinseyy. I started making games a little more year and a half ago (of course if I have spare time).

So I finally had time to make game, and not to waste any i decied to join a game jam. I chose Mini Jam 44 and...

Here are the results:

We had limitation that the game could only have only 3 inputs, so i opted for platformer game, but then tought it would be boring to do only this. Then I came up with a idea. What if I award player for jumping in the right places and paying attention to the surroundings? So I decided to make the player shoot a bullet whenever he double jumps. When bullet hits an enemy it resets your double jump and you can do it again and again. It added more depth to the game than I thought it would. Anyway i added 3 types of enemies and made 11 levels so player can challenge himsef/herself. I purposely didn't create almost any HUD in the game to give player clear view. The only thing that represents the double jump is white frame on the screen and white fog following player.

Anyway, if you are interested in my game, check the link and have great fun. Happy New Year!
