Gold Rush by GiveMeAllYourCats

[raw]
made by GiveMeAllYourCats for LD29 (COMPO)
Gold Rush!



Glad to announce my first LD entry ever, also I suck at drawing and drawed everything MYSELF. It's platformer in haxe code with the haxeflixel framework, TILED as map editor, FL Studio for music, sfxr for SFX and aseprite for sprityspritesprites!

Game Desc:
"Beneath the surface exists a man's life named BOB. His job? Find gold and evade other pesky gold diggers. THIS IS GOLD RUSH!"


DO NOT RATE THIS VERSION BASED ON THE NEWGROUNDS RELEASE! that is a after compo version, you can play it but do not give me a rating here based on that version!

Some of the enemy placement is a little cruel, but overall the level layout was quite good (if a little challenging). Was nice to see some variety in the level obstacles as well, like the trampolines and the levers.

Might be nice to have the controls listed on the game's page so they show all the time. Took me a while memorize which buttons did which :)

Dang, those other miners are OP! The art's a bit rough and the game ran really slow for me, but other than that good job!

It's very hard to control, but I managed to beat up a few sheriffs and get a decent amount of gold :) awesome music!

kinda wish there wasn't fall damage, but otherwise, it was a pretty fun game. Good job :)

You can cancel fall damage by double jumping ;)

This is an amazing first ever LD entry! A little frustrating in parts, and the collision and movement could be smoothed out, but there is a lot here that was done in 48 hours. Good luck in your future LD ventures.

I played with the keyboard with WASD and I accidentally pushed CTRL+W when I tried to jump and punch and then the browser window was gone :(. Fortunately you also support arrow keys.

I'm a huge fan of platformers, and this one is definitely fun. It was pretty challenging which I enjoy. Good entry :)

This is, quite probably one of the most awful glitchiest platformers I've ever played. Great atmospheric sound though.
