Potential by William Bundy

[raw]
made by William Bundy for LD30 (JAM)
Climb, shoot, and bounce your way through 2.5 levels of not being related to the theme at all.

Potential is a platformer based around the idea that you can preserve your potential energy when falling. This manifests itself by being able to bounce to the same height from which you fell. Combine with an almost inability to jump and a deep hole becomes less treacherous than a bump in the road.

Also, there are robots that try to shoot at you. You can shoot them.

Controls:
WASD for movement
Get close to ladders and hold W to climb them.
Space to bounce when you hit the ground.
Hit tab while in the air to only bounce halfway up when you hit the ground and are holding Space.
Enter to shoot.

Made with C#, SDL2-CS, (modified) Farseer Physics, and Json.NET. Theoretically works on all platforms with Mono, SDL2, SDL2_image, SDL2_mixer, SDL2_ttf, libpng, mpeg, libfreetype2, and probably some others. Look at the list of .DLLs for reqs, and I'll try to get Linux/OSX versions out soon.
