2D Platformer

The gist: build a game where you run, jump, and dodge enemies while trying to reach the end of a level.

Concepts

• Level editor usage
• Level design
• Game design for challenging enemies

Extra Credit

• A fun alternative to this idea is an auto-running platform where the only input is to jump. This works especially well for mobile devices where input for precise platforming is slightly limited.
