A cute little puzzle platformer kind of game where youve got to deliver portal keystones to your goblin pals to help them out of trouble!

Look at this sad boy!

He's stuck without a portal stone and _clearly_ he needs a special delivery from another goblin pal!

See much better! He'll be back to licking random objects in no time!

Made as a solo effort over the 3 day jam period. I used Godot 3.5 for the game, Blender for 3D models, Aseprite for 2D stuff, LabChirp for SFX and Fruity Loops for the Music.

Unfortunately I only had time to put 3 levels together, trying to make 3D levels in Godot was probably the biggest hurdle of the jam for me, I ended up having to settle with the weird rendering errors I was getting from using it's GridMap system.

Even though there isn't a lot of content I still found myself repeating levels while testing I think theres a decent amount of juice in here for a jam game. Hopefully you'll enjoy hanging out throwing rocks at orcs :D

Tools: Aseprite, Blender, FL Studio, Godot

Having a 2D sprite in a 3D world was a very cool idea, but made it harder to do platforming accurately, even with the shadow. The background music and sound effects fits perfectly, and the enemy AI was super cool as well.

Really cute game and SUPER cute goblins, I would die for them. The pickup controls were a little weird at times - sometimes I could pick up the ball, sometimes I couldn't - but I still made it through and rescued all the goblins. Great job :)
