Taking a much needed foodie break. As it's my first ever jam I've made something pretty basic but it'll hopefully end up being fun.

TIGHTROPE FIGHTER!

Start with no weapons and have to jump over enemies. You need to hit the land button in time else you fall past the rope. Eventually be able to get a sword and knock opponents off. Then later a gun (not coded yet). Hopefully by the end of tomorrow I'll have more weapons and a variety of enemies.

That's enough for me for one day. This is probably the most coding I've done in one day and my head is swimming! Looking forward to tomorrow though to add new content.

Of course I split my coffee on the only keyboard I thought I had in the house on the last day of the jam. After scrabbling around for ages to see if I had any spare, I crawled to the finish line using an Alphasmart Neo as a spare keyboard (oh dear).

Sadly, if it wasn't for that, the game would've had more features. But I'm intending to continue to develop it post-jam. Good luck everyone.

Now I'm going to have a much needed bath!

Due to feedback I have made some minor control fixes and made the game play easier on Tightrope Gauntlet. https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/45/tightrope-gauntlet
