Finished! (more to come)


I have been working on this on and off since submitting it to the gamejam and finished some functionality that was missing for its initial release.  I hope you enjoy the changes, if you have any feedback for how to improve the experience further, let me know.

  • Dumbus got a makeover, for better or worse.  I aimed for a more realistic look for a dumbo octopus but am open to feedback for his new look.
  • Robert is now no longer just a mouse cursor, he can pick up powerups dropped by enemies, but at the same time can still be hit himself so watch out!
  • Powerups!  So far only a couple but if I get other ideas I will add them in.  Robert can hold them between levels so you can strategically keep a powerup with you if you wish.
  • The game now correctly shows you what level you are on when you finish levels.
  • A little easter egg... First person to comment on this post with what it is, can also decide on a new enemy for the game, just let me know in the same comment what you would like :)

I will add more levels but need feedback on how easy or difficult the game is to try to keep a good difficulty curve.
