What is this?

UPDATE: I went back to this project in May 2025, gave it a big refactor, code style update, replaced player movement with a physics based one with acceleration and deceleration, and made a bunch of barely noticeable changes here and there. You can download the Construct 3 project file for both the old jam version (build 7) and the updated one (build 8) and use it as a template if you want (under MIT license).

I started making this project for The Captain Coder's Learn You A Game Jam 2024, live on stream, kinda like a tutorial. I couldn't finish it before the deadline, but here it is.

I streamed the development of the first seven builds (~14 hours):

• Part 1: player movement  & aiming
• Part 2: obstacles, smooth camera, basic weapon, player health
• Part 3: autotiling walls, enemies
• Part 4: hats / different weapons, more enemies

If you're interested in this sort of thing, you can follow me on Twitch!
