Creative Assignment 6

A Platform or Top-down Game.

Two of the most popular 2D game genres are platform games, think Mario, and top-down games, think Zelda. The main difference between these types of games is that in a platform game the primary play mechanic is jumping. In this assignment you will create a game that uses either of these styles.

Details

  1. Be a platform game or a top-down game.
  2. Use a list of sprites.
  3. Have a player-controlled sprite that interacts with the sprites in the list
  4. Have the ability to win or lose.
  5. Be impressive.
