Cosmic Breath
A downloadable game
Hello everybody!
This is an old project me and my friends made as part of a local Game Jam at my university. All the code and assets were put together in 72 hours (so be kind).
It's a platformer that takes place in an alien planet. You have to collect water bubbles in order to save your home planet from thirsts. Sadly you don't have much oxygen and the planet is full of monsters wanting to kill you! Fortunately scientist on Earth have fount a way to replenish oxygen from plants, so if you run out, just grab some.
The interesting mechanic (IMO) is the flamethrower you carry around. You can use it to kill monsters if you want, but combustion drains oxygen faster, SO USE IT WISELY.
NOTE: the game is in Italian, but if someone is interested to this concept I can translate it to english. Also change the difficulty in options menu.
Before judging:
Consider that this game was made in a rush and from scratch. Not even a proper game engine! The game is written in vanilla python with pygame library. All the collision logic, camera logic, dialog system and so on is made from scratch. So... be kind.
Known bugs:
I'm aware of a few bugs, sadly I can't fix them right now due to lack of time. But if the feedback is positive I'll give it a try.
- First time the game is run you will fall out of the map. Just click ESC in order to return to main screen and then start a new game. The second time should work just fine.
- Sadly most of the dialogues bugs out, and you can't read it. So here's a quick tutorial: WASD to move and SPACE to use flamethrower. That's it.
- If you hold W (depending on your frame rate) you could clip through walls. Just don't abuse it? OR DO ABUSE IT. Everything that is fine for you is fine for me
