Sniper-Platformer by thecrancher

[raw]
made by thecrancher for LD 41 (JAM)

Hello, welcome to our jam game! This game is a combination of a 2-D Platformer, and a "Sniper" "FPS" kind of game. You move the player along his level, and protect him with the sniper, by shooting enemies, and bullseye switches to activate bridges and gates. The level is not completed yet, our idea had more than a few problems. So please bare with us. We will continue to work on this game, because I feel it is an unique idea.

I aploogize ahead of time, this game is not finished. Time was not our friend during this event. We had one team member leave late in the development, and schedule conflicts as well. But the idea came from SoulPixelIV, and me and my coder did a lot of what you see. SoulPixelIV did help us with some of it just time was definitely our enemy this go around.

Move - A and D Jump - SPACEBAR Aim - RIGHT-CLICK Shoot - LEFT-CLICK

Took the plunge and tried it: would have been so cool if you had had the time to further build upon it! Core gameplay was fun, outside of player movement being so slow when aiming. Liked how the enemies were sent flying into the skies ^^

Maybe you'll have more luck next jam!

Nice idea, although the current version is a bit limited and static. I am impressed to see an escort mission that doesn't completely suck. You don't happen to know the flash game material sniper? Perhaps you can take some inspiration from that. Good luck next time and update us on your progress.

Thanks for the feedback guys, the reason the player movement is slow when aiming is because it goes into bullet time. So the best time to move the player is when you are not aiming, forcing the player to kind of play 2 different games at once.

It needs to be finalized, but it's unusual. I want to see the updated version))))

Feels a bit unfinished. Adding a timer to increase pressure I think would be a quite simple add that could improve the experience. Obviously more levels and some kind of "finish level" are needed. The idea was really great and I think could be expanded into something cool.
