I haven\u2019t decided on anything specific about the platformer itself yet, that will come with time. Anyways, it plays as you\u2019d expect a platformer to play, except there is a catch. To say that your monitor is \u201ccheap\u201d would be an understatement, and it regularly dims out to the point that you can\u2019t see anything. Fortunately, you can fix this by whacking the monitor a few times, but you have to stop playing the game for a short while to do this. Meanwhile, the game continues to play in the background, not paused. You have to plan according to when your monitor will dim, and leave yourself in a suitably safe location while you fix it. If you die while AFK you must restart, as well as when you die in-game (obviously). When you finish the game, the camera returns to the room where you discover that it is now morning, and your mother is yelling at you from downstairs to come down for breakfast. *Cue fade to black*<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I probably won\u2019t do any work tonight, and will start early in the morning tomorrow.
