Cube Runner

This is a Game I made for a GameJam with the theme "Jump".

This is a journey of a CUBE in the space that is trying to prove that the CUBE is the better form. It is a solo journey against the other forms who are trying to defeat the CUBE.

Your feedback is always welcome.

I hope you enjoy the game.

How to Play

• SPACE: To Jump
• R: To retry the level
• P: Pause/Unpause the game
• H: Active/Deactive Hack to unlock all the levels (try without this)

Process

I tried to use some light and volume processing to create a good atmosphere using the URP, but I don't have much experience with that.

First time doing a whole menu with the game over screen, selectable levels, etc.

Also first game I'm finishing, and it was made after less than 2 weeks of studying Unity.

Day 1:

• Create the base idea
• Create movement
• Create the first 1 enemy (Triangle) and make it easy to create more enemies
• Create the initial menu and the resources for the level data
• Create the code to generate the scenario based on the resources dynamically based on the camera, only what the player sees exists
• Create the art for most of the elements
• Create the particles around the portal (it's not easy to see but I'm happy with the result)
• Use the URP to refine the game

Day 2:

• Add sound
• Refine the playability (jump, movement, ground detection, coyote time)
• Create Iteractable Itens and the case score system
• Create the HUD
• Refine Menu and color pallet
• Test Embeddable Game here in more screen sizes
• Create 6 levels to teach the player about the scenarios and playability

Day 3:

• Create a new Enemy (Hexagon Twin)
• Create a new level (7) and fix some others (5-6)
• Add Trail to the Player
• Fixe a bug that allows the player to jump on the beginning of the level befoer touch the floor
• Create a new Enemy (Circle)
• Add more levels using the Cirle
• Create a Game Win UI with detah count
• Lock the levels to only be accessible when pass the prevous one (or use the (H)ack)
