Keep it up lad! by Chris AC

[raw]
made by Chris AC for Ludum Dare 46 (JAM)

Screenshot 2020-04-21 at 00.51.10.png An embarrassingly simple game about keeping a ball 'alive' by bouncing it off a wall and a players head. First LD Jam, just giving it a go. Appreciate any feedback! Note: the audio was taken from Freesound. I am trying to find the name of the creator amongst my notes to credit them here.

I'd love to try your game but when I click the link to get the password, it asks me for a password!

Great job, even if it's simple :)

@llewellyn-and-michael sorry! I tried to make it clearer, I put the password in the download link description, it is LD46. Cheers

Indeed, simple but fun.

Some points:
- There's a bug if you jump while holding left or right and keep holding, the character keeps jumping
- It would be more interesting if there were other challenges as the score gets high. For example, jumping isn't really necessary now, you can jump just for fun or don't jump at all and "keep it alive".
- Keeping the movement after releasing left/right is strange, though I'd suppose that wasn't intentional.

Yeh you are completely right, I did not notice the jump bug, but it is there.
Thanks for the comments!
