Two weekends back, a couple friends and I took part in a 24 hour game jam sponsored by Game Theory. It was a blast. Being inexperienced, we kept the scope small and didn’t stay up all night; treated the whole thing like an exploratory mission. It worked well – we learned a bunch and came out of it with a rough but very fun game about a pumpkin aspiring to throw itself from the highest heights. Seasonally appropriate. Also it’s an allegory for life and achievement. The pumpkin splatters at the end. Okay, let’s get to the game:
This pumpkin will not quietly rot on the front steps. Keep moving (left/right arrow keys) and jumping (space) to fall from the highest height you can. Hint: you can wall jump at the edge of platforms.
Tell me about your high scores!
