Software used
GameMaker Studio 2.3

Use of the limitation
The web theme inspired me to make a game about a tiny spider inside a computer (who spins webs) and also delivers emails (via the web!). The limitation was a chance to prioritise level-based obstacles over other enemies that I had originally planned for the game. The dodgy circuitboard walls will collapse from time to time, so having the ability to create web-bridges to cross the gaps worked really well.

Cookies eaten
No cookies unfortunately, but I ate a whole chocolate orange and drank lots of coffee!

cool game, need a little more polish, but, this is impressive for a game that only made in 3 days, nice!

Developer

Thank you!

A cute and creative little game, I love the net spinning mechanic, even though it took me a bit to figure out how to actually make webs. My little spider also didn´t seem to be bothered at all by the missing floor pieces. Is that intend to be like that?

Developer

Thanks so much.  That definitely wasn't intentional as currently that's the only way to get a game over!  The collision code was a bit rushed so something I'd like to improve on with more time.
