A simple 2D vertical rougelite with a whole bunch of different modifiers and power-ups to gain. How fast can you get to the top?

​During my first semester at Bradley, I had the opportunity to participate in the school-hosted Kaboom! Game Jam, and this was the result that followed. The theme this time was "2 birds, one stone," and it took me a little while to actually figure out what exactly to do with that prompt. Eventually, I landed on this idea of a caveman launching himself out of a ravine with a large stone and a seesaw device, hitting pterodactyls on the way up. I had also never made a roguelike before, so this was a solid introduction.​

​

Overall, I learned the difference between working alone and as a team for this kind of project, as this was my first time doing a Game Jam alone. I still had a great time participating, and I was happy to see how well I did, even by myself! If you like simple, mindless, high-score-based games, I would recommend this.
