Created for SoloDevelopment #10 - New Year Jam!

--
All assets (music and art) are by me EXCEPT for the grass tiles, which are Sprout Lands -By : Cup Nooble 

All art was made during the game jam, and the music track comes from a different game I was working on earlier this year that I decided was too wild for me to mix fully and put on spotify. It's honestly just a placeholder until I compose real music for this.

Full disclosure: I am very rudimentary with programming and followed this tutorial by Coding with Russ pretty much to a tee since I'm pretty unfamiliar with the engine and wanted to learn about basic development in this jam. Here is the link to the tutorial series: 


I plan to enter this into the month-long jam and implement some of my own original features and remove some concepts I don't like, which include:

gameplay:

- levels that incorporate waves (I either want to incorporate waves into levels with a boss at the end, or just dissolve the waves entirely)
- bosses (as said above)
- health bar instead of lives
- varying enemies with scaling difficulties (and maybe don't die immediately!_
- MAKE GAME HARDER
- introduce gold hoard to defend as well as yourself
- additional items

misc other:
- sound effects
- remodeling some existing assets (music, sprites)
- create my own tileset
- title screen
- cover art (instead of just a screenshot)
- use dialogic to do some before-level cutscenes with bosses (I love making art panels)

If there are any (simple) other suggestions for me to work on throughout the month let me know! I want to learn as much as I can from working on this (despite this likely being pretty basic compared to everyone else's cool stuff!)
