The Curse of the Cake's itch.io page

Which parts of the entry did you NOT make?
The music. The music was actually randomly generated. ^_^ All the rest was made by myself.

Which parts of the entry did you make BEFORE the jam?
Hmm, not that I really made made, but 3 of the characters, the cat and the last 2 bosses, are characters of mine from my old comic strips. But the sprites were made during the jam.

How many people were on your team?
Just me.

What engine / tools did you use for the entry?
I've used Gamemaker studio 2, and it was my first time using it. That's a personal challenge that I've imposed to myself.

How did your jam go? Did you enjoy the topic and limitation(s)?
I did, specially the 2 colors limitation. Luckily this jam was 1 week long, because I had to work on other things as I've worked on this game as well ^^;

How do you feel about the jam being unranked?
Particularly, I like it. It gives me, a beginner game designer, some relief and freedom to participate without giving me a lot of stress.

Great game especially considering all the limitations and challenges you had! Only thing i would have liked to see was  a way to get stronger in the later levels (Maybe there is i just couldnt reach it). But otherwise fantastic game jam entrant!

Thank you for your feedback, and thank you for playing the game :) 

I do plan on update this game on a later game (maybe next week I will work on it). But it will be only a few tweaks, I'm not happy with the collision checks for example. And I will also balance the game.

Did you have any trouble with the difficulty? Were you able to finish the game? :)

I can confirm as a gms2 user myself, that this, is epic.

Try my project for the game jam too: https://redfive11.itch.io/round-knights

Thank you :D I'm glad you liked it. I had a lot of trouble making it, since I'm pretty new to GMS 2, I usually use Unity to make my games, this was the first time trying this engine ^^. I've checked your game, and I like it ^^ But there's just one thing that I would change on it... ^^;;;; the screen shaking is too strong ^^;;;; But besides that, I like your idea :D
