#Devruary Day 2: What was the first game you ever made?

I made a lot of small game projects, but the first game I ever finished and uploaded for other people to play was "7th Heaven" over 13 years ago!

It's nice to look back and see how far I've come!


The game was a simple platformer with 7 levels that got progressively harder with new obstacles, such as lighting and slippery ice. Each level was higher and higher until you made it to space.

For the graphics I made super simple sprites in PowerPoint, as well as using some free game assets, such as the gems that you collected to give you points.

Today I'm not embarrassed by how bad my first games looked, it's all part of the learning process. I get to look back and see just how much I've developed my skills!

Lucky Tower Ultimate is a chaotic, comedy roguelite. Escape from an incredibly dangerous, randomly generated tower in a slapstick adventure that looks like a cartoon and feels like a joke. Slashy slashy!
