After multiple massive setbacks I can finally present
A game made in the Haxe language using heaps for graphics and echo for physics.
The goal of the game is to steer the orb left and right and thereby descend deeper and deeper into the game.
Along the way you’ll run into a bunch of nasties to avoid or obliterate with your trusty orb gun.
The environment has a bunch of surprises in store for you aswell:
bouncy floor, moving platforms, volatile blocks, platforms that appear and disappear, spikes and more!
Space or left mouse button to fire your gun
and left/right keys or mouse to control the crosshairs.
Obviously the game suffered from it and I've run out of steam.
There's really only 1 proper level and only half of the features made it into the game.

Reflections
It's been 7 years since I last used haxe and I've never used heaps+echo so this was quite the experiment for me.Obviously the game suffered from it and I've run out of steam.
There's really only 1 proper level and only half of the features made it into the game.
