Jelly Rush is a game about growth. As a tiny monster, collect orbs of jelly (apparently falling from the sky) and grow into an adorable giant!

Controls:
A/D or Left/Right Arrows: Move
J or Spacebar: Dart/Dash
I or Up Arrow: Grow

Developed in Game Maker: Studio
Art, Music, and Code are all original.
Source code is included with the game.

Notes:
Something wierd'll happen to you when you start moving, if you're bigger.
There was more to it, but it all changed when I couldn't figure out horizontal collisions.
I left plenty of clues for how growth works.
Other than that, it's as simple as it gets.

Too basic and got boring after a minute. Needed some way to finish.

The game is perhaps a bit too basic, but it's also fun and really beautiful.

Thanks for the comments, guys! Hopefully, I'll be able to up the ante next time!

Nice animation, sounds and music. But the gameplay is slow and quickly becomes boring. I loved the ability to spam "Dash" though.

very cute little game! I loved the little moving animations and sounds and the dashing ^^
I just found it sad that the blob looses a lot of it's cuteness with each grow :(

Cute art and the idea of only being able to grow in the light is kind of cool - I was confused for a while as to why I wasn't able to grow yet before realizing there was a threshold. I thought I heard a shift in the music right before I was successfully able to grow, which (if it was intentional) was a nice touch... might have just been my imagination, though. Still, not bad!
