Pushy Monster by anarbitrarymustache
You are a dungeon monster that is tired of being "pushed" around by his monster peers. So, one day when a hero shows up, you decide to help him find his way through your dungeon in an attempt to get even.
First LD entry. Bit off more than I could chew (even though I had been thoroughly warned about that rookie mistake).
This is still very much unfinished. I am really only posting because I told myself I would submit no matter what. This is the closest I've ever made it to completing a game. I put it here as inspiration for next time.
For right now, just some tutorial levels (3 to be exact) are here to play. I wasted a lot of time on asset creation and trying to streamline my level building process that never came to fruition - and left me without levels in the end :(
You WILL find game breaking bugs!
Game created in GameMaker Studio Pro.
Art created mainly in Adobe Photoshop (some Adobe Illustrator and the GM built-in editor)
I didn't even get close to creating sound/music.
The background tune that you'll hear is "Sneaky Snitch" by Kevin MacLeod.

Controls
WASD or arrow keys for movement
R = retry level (uses a life)

Fixed the bug when pressing "R" after player leaves the room freezing the game.

Well, I like it!
Really good work! It looked already really polished (until the game starts over again after 3 levels) xD
But disregarding the lack of content: This is really great. One of the more beautiful and original ones i have seen.
Keep up the good work and maybe finish it and put it somewhere online!
I think people might actually like to play such a puzzle game :)
But you should uncheck "get sound ratings" if you did not make the music ;)
Only having limitted time to set things up feel like it could create some pretty fun, chaotic moments where you have to set things up as the hero is already walking. A bit short, would love to see a couple of extra levels added :)
Thanks everyone for the feedback.
I'm guessing you fixed the bugs or I was lucky because I had no problems.
It totally looks like the type of games I like. Any chance you release a Web or Android version ?
