Balloon Fly

Can you beat our high score?

This is a game we made for a beginner game jam. This is pretty much our first game project and we learned a lot about game development. First of all, managing tasks and time is crucial. We also learned how to program some mechanics, like a "fuel" mechanic which can be interpolated as a health mechanic. We learned a lot about 2D physics, and we feel proud about not using any assets other than the sound effects.

Please provide feedback, constructive criticism and/or suggestions for future game jams, it will be appreciated. We made only one stage in this game because of time constraints, but it is easily extendable and we can work on the game in the near future, i.e adding stages or obstacles.

Controls:

A -> Move Left

D -> Move Right (Arrows also work)

Space (tap)  -> Jump

Space (hold) -> inflate

LShift -> Dash (THIS CONSUMES 20% AIR)

GAME JAM THEME: GROWTH

The idea is that the balloon as you inflate it, it also grows in size thus making it harder to navigate through obstacles.
