Game Jam submission for Mini Jam 217: Whimsy

Use the mouse to drag  the controls in the game, to control the game inside the game!

Red Button - Drag downwards, and then either back up, or release, to jump.

Joystick - Drag left or right to move in that direction

Zapper - Drag to move the crosshair on-screen, and release to shoot.


This is my first ever game jam submission! Although it's incredibly jank and a little rushed, I'm just glad I was actually able to complete something in less than 3 days.

There's definitely some bugs I didn't catch, I'm just hoping they're not game-breaking. 


Shoutout to https://not-jam.itch.io/ for making their music freely available for projects. I did NOT have time to make any myself and theirs sounds great.


POST-RELEASE UPDATE NOTES:

Made slight tweaks to controls to feel nicer

Fixed a bug in which the player could delay death while preparing to jump

Moved and added a checkpoint
