Pet Overload is a simple 2D top-down puzzle game written with SDL2 and available for Windows, MacOS and GNU/Linux. You use W/A/S/D to navigate through several mazes in a forest terrian, however, once you come in contact with an animal, you instantly adopt them and they stick to you like a magnet, helping you throughout the game. Unfortunately, you only have the energy to care for so many pets, so watch out! You can sell a pet to an NPC by walking up to him or her, and then your energy will be restored.
The game is coded in C using SDL2 for graphics (https://libsdl.org) and I drew the assets in GIMP (https://gimp.org). It feels a bit rough (particularly because of the sprites, collision detection, jumpy movement, and lack of sound) but I hope you like it!
* This is a very short game, it should only take between 9 and 3 minutes to complete.
* Note to Linux users: you'll need to install libSDL 2.0.x if you don't already have it!
* (Source code content warning: May contain trace amounts of kludges, premature optimization, excessive bitwise arithmetic, etc.)
Changes: I fixed a bug that allowed you to go just under the bottom and to the right of the screen.
