Pick up and drop objects in strategic locations to reach the goal and proceed to the next level. My uninspired take on "Start with nothing" leaves you starting the game holding nothing :open_hands: :laughing:
Wasn't able to finish this in time, but planning on continuing work :) You can currently jump around and pick up boxes. Eventually, what you're holding will change the way your character moves.
My first jam! I didn't have the full weekend to work on this, sadly. If I'd had another 4 hours or so I probably could have finished level progression, death states, and playtested a few levels, but still would have been lacking sound and other polish. I chose to start from scratch with SDL, which meant reimplementing tilemap rendering and collision detection. That kind of stuff is fun for me, but definitely didn't make for rapid prototyping :) Maybe will try Unity next time if I want to focus more on unique game mechanics.
Definite props to the Emscripten folks. It was relatively painless to get this up and compiling there. I'm not very familiar with JavaScript, so this made it a lot easier to get running online.
Z: Jump
X: Grab/drop whatever is in front of you.
