When the theme came out as 'Keep It Alive' my immediate instinct was to make a bootleg Touhou game. Lacking in both time and expertise, I figured the next best thing was to try and create a survival-style platformer.
You are a Droplet named Meringue, and for whatever reason you're being haunted by the crude Phantom. The goal is simple: stay alive. Your health ticks down over time and the Phantom has spikes and bullets to make sure the clock moves a little faster, so to speak. You're not without help as every once in a while a peach will appear to give you some health back (which happens to be a favorite food of the Droplets). How long can you keep the Droplet alive?
- Z: jump
- Esc: quit (windows only)
- Art/Sound/Dev: Me
- Updated Webgl version to respect viewport aspect and not stretch the textures beyond recognition
- v1.1 4/25/2020
- Tweaked movement to be more precise
- Re-imported textures with the correct options to remove blurriness
- Changed submission title from "Droplet Dodge - LDJ46" to just "Droplet Dodge" to look less... odd
- Fixed typos in submission description
- Added mention of the Quit button (even though it only works on the windows version)
- v1.0 4/20/2020
- The base version with slippery movement and features to be added later
