play this for maybe like a minute that you have to waste. I am really sorry, I just have to do this. I was motivated to do something like a metroidvania.But ALAS!But ALAS!But ALAS!But ALAS!But ALAS!But ALAS!

This is my fate. play this excuse for a game if you wish to see what I was talking about.

While it seems tempting to have your first try at a game during a game jam. I'd actually recommend spending a couple of months on one project before you try.

@sarah Sorry Sarah I made a Noob mistake. I uploaded the game to google drive and pasted the shareable link here, obviously forgetting that I could have hosted it on itch.io . Please don't feel bad. There are plenty of good games out for LD45. Do check out one called Amor Fati. I love it :heart:

I got stuck in-between the U and the wall. The self depreciating humor is a bit overboard IMO. I tried restarting, but I couldn't find anything else to do.

I don't know where you were going with this, but hey it's good that you got something started at least! If you're still motivated, maybe you can expand on this and add fireworks? `:sob: :sob:`

Yeah I am going to title it POIMAN, watch out for it @itsdanidre. Yes It'll have a lot of fireworks! I'll make it my reason for being alive for now. no more :sob: :sob:

This game started with nothing and nearly also ended with nothing.
