Jeff Goldweight by Jiffy

[raw]
made by Jiffy for LD 40 (JAM)

Join Jeff on his quest to gain infinite wealth! Traverse treacherous caves and avoid (or slay) enemies along the way!

The more gold you have, the slower Jeff walks and the lower he jumps (carrying all that gold isn't easy!). But, you can throw out gold and use it as a weapon, or to gain that much needed height to avoid an obstacle.

In it's current state, the game has 8 full levels, but when the game gets released to Game Jolt, it will have a minimum of 24 levels.

The game looks great. It's interesting to see that I'm not the only one who went into the gold collecting direction.

The art of the game looks very nice and polished. The character is super nice ( :
suggestion: I thought the jump felt a bit too floaty and odd to control.

@gumboot I agree with you 100%, I struggled trying the make the jumping feel better since day one of the jam. It went through lots of revisions and with more time I think it would've turned out better. Thanks for your feedback!

oh congratulation! Nice art! Can I follow it also on indiexpo? Do you have also a page there? This looks great! I looked for the games that used the #LDJAM but I don't find yours. So good luck!! I will hope to make a video about it!

Nice idea! I especially like the hair flip as he jumps.
