[raw]
made by btnpresser for Ludum Dare 48 (JAM)

Marble Hopper - A Platformer where you progressively move deeper through world portal to... somewhere.

Made for Ludum Dare 48. The theme was Deeper and Deeper It can be played in browser and there is also a Windows build available.

Controls:

W/A/S/D to Move
Mouse to look around
Left mouse click to interact with objects
Space to Jump
Shift to Sprint​
O should release your mouse from the game screen if it is stuck to it
Numpad Minus if you want to view the name of the current world you are in​

Credits to Sebastian Lague whose portal youtube video​ I heavily expanded upon.

The overall experience is fairly short. Not quite a completed game this year either but it was a lot of fun to put everything together for this nonetheless :)

Pretty levels. Could have used some text that told me if the game was completed.

Do be honest it is more tech demo than a game, but pretty non the less!

Pretty graphics! The controls felt a little sluggish to me but great game nonetheless!

I imagine that portals are technically hard to implement, so, well done getting that working perfectly. I found 3 buttons and pushed them. Could you tell me if that's all there is to do?

Some issues (I played on web): the mouse sensitivity is way too high, there were one or two trees off the ground, and the buttons are strangely unreliable/hard to press. The absence of audio is strange.

@reheated, yea. That's currently all there is. I spent most of my time getting systems working and ran out of time to make more worlds. So that's a note for the future!
Thanks for the rest of the feedback as well! :)

@too-lazy-cat, I agree. I should have swapped to the unfinished option in retrospect.
