Ok, I’m awake! It’s probably about time I wrote an update. I’ve ended up making a rope-swinging game, where the rope is the “take this” object. I spent a fair chunk of yesterday getting the rope functionality in, so unfortunately the rest of the game’s progress is lagging a bit… hopefully I can fix that today.

Some things that currently work:

• Death, when you fall into lava
• A few sound fx
• Bubbly lava particles
• The rope can only be thrown at the light-coloured blocks

My current to-do list:

• New player sprite, with animations
• Enemies
• Intro sequence, to tie in the theme
• Traps
• Different types of blocks (?)

Ok, back to work!
