With some last minute complications with the tags... I have finished my first LUDUM DARE!
The game is on the short side, but there is a nice small adventure. At the start my idea was that you were a slime that would have to squeeze through passages smaller than yourself by shedding slime, or sacrificing it. Eventually that turned into putting your slime into pits to get across.
I know that this game is not fool proof, but it's short enough that exiting and restarting will not give you too much of a setback.
My favorite part of this jam would have been figuring out how to select a custom color via player input. I was probably a lot happier than I should have been, but I was determined to get my cyan slime and it was a satisfying conclusion!
My biggest regret is how much I slept, as I think I could have finished a lot more if I shaved 4-5 hours off my slumber. Though it may be the other way around if I did take the cut haha.
I look forward to checking out what everyone else has created!
Side note:
I had some troubles uploading to GitHub. I believe everything is there, but if anything is missing, I can see if I can get it uploaded, or I can dropbox the project if necessary.
Known bug: if a single horizontal direction is held going through a door, occasionally the player will become unaligned with the regular path. This doens't break the game but it will stop progress.
