A two button game about a Beanstalk going on an adventure, killing all animals that eat vegetation in his way. Written in C++ and SDL2 right now only downloadable for linux. Don't let the adorable turtles and chickens fool you! They eat beans! To the people saying more enemies, I made a bunny is like a turtle combined with a chicken, however I never put it into the game, all I did was make the bunny animation.
*If someone has a windows computer can they tell me if the windows version works? It works in wine but I'm not sure whether or not it will work on windows.

This is a great game, but It should have more types of enemys.

Yo, the source is not working, you might want to fix that lol, it says that I don't have access to the repository.

I like the movement idea, but combined with the level design it's very difficult to get around without falling off the edge; even more so because there's no clues as to which direction I should be going in. Initially going down seemed the be the right idea, but then I suddenly ran out of ground!

The graphics are quite nice though, especially the adorable tortoises which I could barely bring myself to jump on.

Sorry lol I forgot to make it a public repo

5you I'm working on it right now I am trying to figure out mingW. :P batmanasb I am trying to fix that, it appears that occasionally it won't statically link

If I could rate the gameplay video, I'd give it a 5 for the recorder in the background.

Any chance for a Windows release?

The door is literally the chest from legend of zelda link to the past. Not sure what other textures you stole, so I can't compliment them. Leaps of faith, in general, aren't solid game design. would be cool to have more walls and less air. powerups of some kind, idk

The graphics are sweet, but the logo isn't very original. Look's a lot like Minecraft's logo. That's not important, however. What this game really needs is more enemies.
Mithreindeirauthor14 Dec 2015, 04:32
@ShadesVertex I wanted it too look like minecrafts font. I should added more enemies but I ran out of time

I made a windows version, it works in wine idk if it will work on a real windows, but if someone could test it that would be nice

Works on windows! Cool gfx, but odd gameplay. You can fall off the blocks and fall forever! I'm not sure if it's just a bug with running on windows but there's also no sound.
Mithreindeirauthor14 Dec 2015, 22:14
@Madcoll The linux version kills you and restarts after you fall for a certain height, and their was never any sound, SDL_Mixer isn't working on my computer so I never incorporated it.

Omg.. what is going on? The starts, you fall, lots of glitchy blocks then you die and the game crashes.
Mithreindeirauthor14 Dec 2015, 23:08
The game doesn't crash it exits because I never wrote the thing to re spawn you. The linux version restarts it for you.

I wasn't really sure what to do, but it worked on Windows! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/LlS8bcKfkfQ

Nice little game. Kudos for not using Unity ;)
Mithreindeirauthor5 Jan 2016, 01:00
Thanks HUMANICS, my first Ludum Dare and I'm almost wishing I used Unity. Barely playable game, I was not ready to make a SDL wrapper and Platformer Engine in 48 hours. Next time I'm gonna do better. :)
