Saving Sunny by atDJDeWitt

[raw]
made by atDJDeWitt for Ludum Dare 46 (COMPO)

​Saving Sunny is my submission for Ludum Dare 46!

In Saving Sunny, you play a young kid who is awoken one night by an explosion at the Perseus Corporation Manufacturing Facility. Always curious, you leave your home and enter the Perseus Perimeter, a restricted zone around the facility. What you find there will make this a Summer you'll never forget...

Controls:

  • Arrow Keys: Move
  • X: Jump

    * C: Call, Pickup, Throw

I didn't get to make many levels and I have a ton more ideas for areas and content, but I hope you like the core mechanic and will consider voting for me in Ludum Dare 46! Either way, thank you so much for playing!​

This is very cute and the graphics are nicely polished! The mechanics are really solid. You could make a bunch of levels with just what you have so far. It's simple, but really interesting. I would die for Sunny (and did twice!).

Also, it looks like this might be your first successful Ludum Dare submission! As a point of advice, if you want to get enough votes to be in the rankings, you should play and rate other games. You usually get about one vote per game rated, so try to play at least 20 games. The more entries you rate, the more visible your game becomes.

Too bad you didn't have time for more levels but the core mechanics seem interesting. Feels pretty good to play and all the necessary feedback is there. Also as a tip: Installers are kind of a hassle so for jams it's usually preferable to export your game as either a "Single runtime exe" or a zip file. You can change it in the dropdown menu when creating your application in Gamemaker.
