A side scrolling stealth platformer where you go and steal stuff from a warehouse.
Goal:
Steal stuff, bring it back to the van.
Theme: "the more you have the worse it is"
The idea I was going for with this was to depict a character who has that weird mix of pride and traditional view of his/her role in his/her relationship with his/her partner/family (the breadwinner) that leads to dishonesty and criminal action when put in a bad situation (here being fired from his/her job and running out of money and feeling to ashamed to tell his family because they rely upon him). I specifically wanted to show how the line between what is the truth or a lie for this character blurs until he/she just becomes totally evasive and distant from their loved ones. ( so maybe honesty would have been a better title ^^').
Largely unfinished mostly due to poor time management (aka i slept too much).
untested before creating installer so probably crashes.
*edit 2
So, i tried out the patched version of the game and i screwed up the order of the levels, which means that it went from the first room straight to the last story blurb. Added on the same page as the one linked below is a patched version of the game where the difference from the previous patch is the level order and the D key now takes you to the before last story room.
*edit 1
Used submission hour to make a beatable version of the game:
https://still-learning.itch.io/pride-submission-hour-patched
Didn't get time before end to test the object that leads to last screen -_-''
change_log:
-fixed last pick_up so as to take you to the final screen.
-fixed enter van arrow to inform you when you can leave at appropriate amount
-fixed issue that touching a guard would crash the game
-fixed not being able to drop off stuff in the third run of the warehouse
-fixed the guard not talking.. kinda
-fixed money not resetting
-and others i forgot in the panic to fix stuff before crashing on my bed
known issues:
-collision in general
-D key crashes the game.
-probably a lot of spelling mistakes.
-lack of tutorial/menu/SOUND/gui and uex in general()
-and much, much more.
tools used:
-gamemaker
-aseprite
keys:
-arrow keys to move,
-1space to use,
-up or down to attach to ladder,
-c for slow walk,
-escape to exit
