Demo Available
This is a project I worked on in Godot and will likely work further on. It is a platformer style game with pixel graphics.
All that there is so far is a small map and a timer.
My personal best time is 9.7 seconds. If you beat my time try sending me a message, (with a screenshot as proof) and I might add something in the game as thanks for trying my game.
The way I designed this game was by using Krita to make the sprites, (as well as the cover image to the game) The sprites are not that advanced but might be improved in the future.
For the movement mechanics I used a KinematicBody2D with both the camera, coordinates, timer, and player animated sprites. The player in fact has only 5 sprites (4 for idle, and 1 for jumping) and a bit of code detects if the players velocity is positive or negative on the x and flips the sprite accordingly. The jumping was a simple "if is_on_floor" and "velocity y = -jump_speed".
The floating blue texture in the sky that you can hop on was originally going to be an easteregg with the texture being the same color as the sky. However the jumps were so well placed that I made that the main part of the game. That is why the first jump is the hardest jump, (because I thought that players would be unlikely to reach it and that it would remain hidden.)
There is a good setup I found for reaching up to the first floating sky texture. First, jump on the first block on the big hill, (your y coordinate should be 84.999458. Then hold right until you are running right and not moving. While you are doing that, jump and get to the top of the hill and jump again non-stop and time it correctly. Doing this will lose some time but make the first jump easier. To lower some time try jumping to the block after your next block. Doing this will reduce the amount of jumps you need and can be used near the middle of the blue blocks.
The bounding window is actually 240x135 in resolution, and is scaled according to the computer's monitor.
There is nothing more to say, but if there are any questions, feel free to comment them and I will try to answer.
