My First Game Jam


Hi all!

This is my first itch upload... and also my first game jam.

I have been building game prototypes using construct 3 for over 5 years, but only have a handful available to download from Google Play Store.

I am currently working on a large project, but took a break to take part in a game jam set up by GAME DESIGN WITH REILLY. The theme was mini game, and my entry was inspired by a game found in my local seaside amusement arcade called 'Pirates Hook'. The object of this game is to drop your fishing rod into the ocean, the further it drops without hitting an object the more points you can acquire.

I have switched out the fishing rod for a thrown bomb and the fish for monsters... If you hit the large monster at the base of the mine, you receive bonus gems, that can eventually be used in the game shop to buy new bombs and character skins.

To play, click the screen or press space bar to throw the bomb. The longer you hold... the more power in the throw! Very simple to play but hard to master. Timing is key when attempting to hit the boss.

I am currently working on a leaderboard and shop, but have a play and see what you think!

Hope you enjoy!!
