*"If at first you don't succeed, just give it another 10 seconds" -Unknown*

*Machine Learning* is an action platformer where each life only lasts 10 seconds. Navigate challenging obstacles, unlock new upgrades, and build on each run in an effort to make it to the final goal.

Controls

Use the arrow keys to move. Press 'Z' to close dialog box. Everything else will be explained in game!

Gameplay

Explore the world to find upgrades that unlock new areas that were previously unreachable.

Be careful of enemies lurking throughout - they are all strong enough to take you down in just 1 hit!

Download Instructions

Extract all the contents of the .zip file then launch the MachineLearning.exe file. If you are a Ludum Dare purist, the original version is still uploaded as 1.0.0, but newer versions present here and on the itch.io page provide various updates that improve gameplay.

Development

Written entirely in C++ and SDL2 using a custom-made engine (as well as the cute_sound library). Sounds created in Bfxr and sprites drawn in Aseprite.

Updates
- VERSION 1.0.1: Tweaked walljump section to make it more forgiving
- VERSION 1.0.2: Changed checkpoint so that it resets timer every time you touch it, further tweaked platforming to be a little easier
