Fun game, liked the skip level so you can't get stuck.

Developer

Thanks! Yea sometimes my games end up with bugs or are unintentionally too difficult so I usually add the ability to skip the levels. I always want to just add a  level select menu, but it usually gets pushed back until its too late.

Make a infinity level :)

Developer

Thanks! I know I was thinking about it, but then I scrapped the idea because I didn't know how haha. but definitely something I want to learn!

I like the animation and the gameplay itself but I think the player's shirt does not match with the first background having the same color as the building. I haven't finished a level, couldn't see other levels though.

Thanks for playing. Levels can be skipped by pressing tab in case you (or anyone reading this) want to just try out each level. Yea I think the game maybe needs to be tweaked a bit. I was happy with the main pushing and jumping mechanics, but I think either the screen needs to be longer or the player needs to move slower so that there is a little more time to see the obstacles and react. Thanks for the feedback on the player color too!

Yah, I saw the instructions before playing the game, but I forgot to use them. For me, it's better to just adjust the screen because the speed of the game is perfect for that kind of game.

The way you chose to animate the wheels was ingenious!

(Needless to say, I couldn't resist speeding cause of this, and I haven't managed to complete a level yet... I can't stop! Very good choice of SFX.)


Beautiful parallax backgrounds. Do you have any tutorial to recommend?

Developer

Thanks for playing! Haha I am glad you liked the wheels! 

 For the parallax background I followed this tutorial https://kidscancode.org/blog/2017/04/godot_101_12/. I think it is for an older version of Godot or something though because it took me a little while to find where some of the properties mentioned in the tutorial were located. Basically in the "Repeating the Background" section it talks about editing the background texture flags to include repeat. For this you need to edit the import settings of the backround.png file in the Import tab in Godot. Then for the region you have to select the background sprite in the scene tree and  edit its region property in  the Inspector Tab. Hope this helps!
