The Creative's Mind is a platformer taking place in the mind of The Creative -- a person just trying to finish a creative project minutes before an important deadline. Delve deeper and deeper into their mind while avoiding Intrusive Thoughts and working against the clock.

Press A/D to move, Space to jump, and E to use Timer Resets (when you have some)! For ease, I suggest putting the game in full screen.

This was my second time participating in Ludum Dare! All assets, music, etc. are made by me. I was heavily considering not submitting, but I managed to iron out a lot of the things that made me unhappy about the game and I decided to submit anyway. There are a few known bugs and a few art details I wanted to fix (mostly consistency issues) but alas, it is what it is.

Programs Used:
Engine: Unity --
Music: Bosca Ceoil --
Art: Krita --
Sound Effects: Bfxr

i'm glad you submitted it, this was fun. i like the concept of playing inside the thought bubble, clever. the music was nice too. i did get stuck a couple times when i was against a wall trying to jump up. neat little platform game here.

Hey ! Super cool that you participated to the Jam ! In fact the concept is cool and the "time gate"
mechanic was pretty fun. I liked how you approached the theme.

Maybe add things to improve the game, like : ScreenShake, character animation (when you jump and run),
coyote time (it's really usefull in platformers, it allows the player to jump a few frame after running of the ledge), and some sound effect when you land on the ground.

I had a good time, good job !
