After some harrowing final hours, I pushed through to the end! There are far too many bugs for my liking, and it’s possible the game cannot be beaten (I couldn’t exactly playtest…) but hey, it was a ride getting here.<\/p>\n

It’s funny, I have these personal rules against starting any new game with jumping\/platforming elements(due to inflated scope, collision nastiness, and oversaturation) but I charged head first into making one for my first compo…I only remembered my rules afterwards, and this serves as a reminder to me to write them down and staple them to my computer screen! I probably lost 50% of development time to screwed up jumps and collisions!<\/p>\n
