Meteor Shower by beanslasher
This is my Ludum Dare 42 submission, I did not have the amount of time I would have liked to due to work. However, this is what I could do in the time allotted. I took the theme in a more straightforward manner. Basically you are an astronaut in space during a meteor shower, your goal is to survive and the platforms you stand on are limited. You get points for walking on as many tiles as you can. Also there is a chance to find coins, which in turn give you more points. The objective is just to score as high as possible. Meteors are randomly generated to destroy the only platforms you have to stand on! You may jump from platform to platform, in hopes to survive the waves of flaming meteors!

I know you didn't make the music, but great choice, fits well in the game. The character is also cute.
Did you experiment with other camera angles as well? Feels like an angled overhead view would have made it a bit more intuitive to navigate.
Looking forward to seeing the game again after you finish polishing it post-jam!
Pretty nice. Game is simple but mechanics are solid. Good job! :)
Shame there isn't a top scores online table, would be cool to see how well other players did and compete with them. My High Score was 2137 i think.
Good luck, Don't forget to take a look at ours if you don't mind and see what it's like when we just focused on graphics in this game jam!
