What Have I Done?
I can't say I've done many impressive things so far, but the one thing that sticks out is the game I made for my personal project. It's a very simple platformer game where you play as a cat. The objective is to avoid the mice and reach the end of each level until you make it back home. If a mouse run into you, you have to restart the level. It takes place on the rooftops of a city, where you have to jump from building to building, avoid the mice, and occasionally solve small puzzles by pushing boxes in a certain way in order to get past a section.Despite how simple the game is, it was very difficult to make and I ran into glitches nonstop. There were a few glitches that I never figured out how to fix in the end, and one level has a "softlock" which forces you to restart the level. But overall, I think it's pretty good for a first game.
I have some regrets making it, mainly that I procrastinated for most of winter break. This caused the game to be worse than it could've been, since I ran into issues that I didn't have enough time to fix. Also, when I uploaded the game, the quality became blurry, but I did that at the last minute so I couldn't fix that. If I had spent my time wisely, I know my game could have been a lot better. In the end, I'm proud of what I made regardless, though.
