Well, I finished with only 15 minutes to spare, but my entry “Werepenguin’s Escape” is done and is ready for play.
Despite wasting Friday evening trying to do this in 2D, I think this turned out quite well. I’m very surprised that I was able to model 5 full 3D levels as well as build the rest of the game in less than 48 hours. Deciding to go with 3D was the right move; it gave birth to the most hilarious element of the game – the ragdoll slip and falls on the ice patches.
The game itself is a simple puzzle game that involves redirecting moonlight to the right places in the level to serve your purposes, with a twist: That very same moonlight will turn you into a penguin! While in penguin form you can move across ice, but you are unable to jump.
I hope everyone enjoys my entry, I certainly enjoyed making it these last two days. I look forward to seeing what other great games came out of this jam!
