August 24th-27th 2012 :: Theme: Evolution
First time participating and it's been incredibly illuminating. There really isn't a game here because I basically spent 48 hours (or some fraction therein given my family responsibilities) creating all this boiler plate and learning about simple implementations of the most basic of shit.
WHICH WAS AWESOME! :) Really looking forward to being better prepared and more tuned in for the next dare. :)
Move: A, D, Left, Right, joystick0 hat
Jump: W, Up, josytick0.button1
Activate: E, Enter, joystick0.button1
The gamepad I used while testing was a logitech.

Thanks Barry. I was intending on basically have like 5 versions of the same level, where each time you play the level is more realized (get it? an evolution of level wakka wakka wakka). The last level would have ideally been a short fun platformer level. When I started I thought that seemed doable.. but I didn't know enough about the tools I was using to really make that happen.
Thanks for checking it out.
I liked the SUPER HARDCORE platforming, but got stuck on the second level :(
Good though!
I'm sure that if you had more time this game would have been great, the gameplay looks solid but I got stuck in the second level too :( Tried it at least 5 times!
Keep it up anyway :)
Nice basic platforming engine. I couldn't get past the second level... that jump, man...
Also couldn't get past the second level, as I didn't know where to jump at a certain point (was I supposed to Use something?)
Still, nice platforming and camera.
Thanks for playing everyone! Yeah that jump requires precise timing... The bummer is that once you're past it and reach the blue square, you get a pretty fun power-up! And then you get to see that the level is pretty much finished right there because it's too easy to reach the fat man. At which point the game just repeats that level.
Good basis for a platformer, reached the fat man ;) Would have been fun to see this evolve in to further levels.
Not too bad. As others have mentioned that one jump on the second level is a bit frustrating.

I like the concept...and the guy's jacket. I'm curious what the end product would have been had you had more time.
