This is a very nice first entry! Very clean implementation of the theme. Very good that you kept the scope small. This way you succeeded in finishing a decent product! Good luck on your following projects.
I almost put this one down after the initial play, but I am glad I didn't. The ui didn't really communicate for me what was going on (mainly not being able to tell the currencies were select-able in the sell or buy menu), but after figuring it out and specing points into jump, then promptly hitting space and soaring up, the game idea clicked for me. I really like what your going for :D high marks for matching the theme and your innovative-ness.
Nice game and very fun to play! Is there a reason why one needs to go to the lower level? Because at some point it is full of enemies and it is much easier for me to just wait on the platforms and ignore them on the ground.
The UI could communicate better which item is which (I think the order of speed and jump is switched which did confuse me). The sky high jumps are very fun!
- I think damage is not implemented ? oooh you just gain money by doing damage, the enemy don't die I guess. I didn't understand. - controls are a bit awkward, selling/buying through keyboard would have made the game a lot more fluid
Once you re-spec into jump, everything makes sense! There could be some text to guide the player, or visual feedback/text in the buy/sell menu, but the game is good otherwise. Excellent work in keeping the project small and simple!
Cool take on the theme my guy! Had some fun with this one.
I didn't quite figure out how to kill enemies though, the attacking seemed a bit weird. If you held mouse one you would do the attack, but if you click, then it skips the animation. Other than that I enjoyed it!
