Hi Everyone! I created this game for Ludem Dare 46 which was from 9pm on April 17,2020 to 9pm April 20. The theme was "Keep it alive". I took the approach of "Keep your spirit alive". In the game, an internal monologue about boredom is played while a monster jumps over pits and destroys objects of tedium. Press the SPACEBAR to shoot and the UP ARROW key to jump!

During this crisis of the Covid-19 Pandemic, a lot of people experience restlessness and boredom because they are stuck inside. I wanted to make a game that explored the meaning of boredom. Sometimes the words "I'm bored" mean "I'm scared", "I'm Lonely", or "I'm angry". I realize my writing could use some improvement and I'm not sure if I really got my idea across in the game. I hope to practice writing more in my game making process! I also feel lucky to be bored in such a turbulent time. Please stay home and stay safe!

I created the art from fabric scraps and auto desk sketchbook. For the 8bit music I used Beep-box(composed within the last 20 mins of the game jam!). The sound effects are from the YouTube music library and I used Logic Pro to put everything together. Construct 3 is the game engine

Thanks for Playing!
