BustingShapes!
Warning... May contain basic geometric mathematics (not really)
This is a prototype for the Game Dev Knock Out competition. Not a full game.

Round 2 Notes
- The toy is the chalk
- The chalk can be used like a gun in two different ways.
- Square (360) can throw the chalk and draw temporary bridges that can be walked/jumped on.
- Higher shapes (540+) can chip away at the chalk firing projectiles at targets for points (basically a gun :P )
Consume the Shapes
By collecting shapes and adding the some of their internal angles to your own you can change your own shape. You may want to be a different shape. How should I know your motivations?
Use the Power of Shapes
Each shape has a different ability, you may want to be able to do different stuff in which case you may need to change your shape.
Achieve something...
Shoot stuff!!! And probably get to the end of the level (TBC)...

Nice work Yanniboi! Controls are great! It took me a bit to see that the 720 had a bar so I was confused why it couldn't jump (it was out of fuel at the time). With the different shapes changing the gameplay, it's actually a bit of a Metroidvania style, I would say. Just need to perhaps add some obstacles and of course expand the level(s). Well done!
Thanks! Yea I didnt want to put too much effort into levels and fine tuning until I found out if I made it to Round 2 and what the next challenge is.
Hopefully I’ll get more time to work on this in the future.
cool game but it only has around 45 seconds of gameplay. unless there is more to it than getting 720 degrees fart flyer.
Its not a game as much as a proof of concept.
Its the first of a 10 round knock out tournament:

I assume I will get to work on it more in the next rounds, but I need to wait and see.
Thanks for playing :)
