The Trials

Created for a Game-Jam under the theme "Death is Good," this 2D speedrun maze-explorer flips the concept of failure on its head. Players navigate a labyrinth filled with deadly traps, but instead of avoiding them, strategic deaths are the key to progression.

This project was my first real developing experience, Using "Lua" in LOVE2d, I worked with two partners (Zachary Lebel & Andrew Thomas) to create the game in 4 days. Throughout this project my main focus was coding the core mechanics of the game. Collision detection -  specifically ladders and spikes, Player movement, including correlating the proper sprites to coincide with the actions that the player are making, creating the pause menu, and assisting with bug fixes.

DISCLAIMER: This game will not have any work done to it going forward
