This is my entry for the GMTK 2023 Game Jam titled "The Hero Runs Away." I programmed this game in the timeframe of 48 hours. I enjoyed working on each feature, especially the rhythm section; it taught me that I need to understand collisions better since a large amount of time was spent on them. Next time I'll have a better understanding of collisions before the next jam. You can find my game on itch.io

For day 1078 of coding, I fixed the room check so that it would not crash the game this time
For day 1082 of coding; I attempted to alter the conditions to stop the endless title fade, but no real progress yet
For day 1080 of coding, I made a new variable for readability. I've also noticed a strange occurrence with the title fade
For day 1084 of coding, I thought I would try shortening the fade time for the title. I think I like the faster fade
For day 1087 of coding, I thought it may be a good idea to keep the Christmas Tree for a later purpose. So far, I have allowed transparency when going behind it. I will need to adjust parameters
For day 1086 of coding; to celebrate Christmas, I made a animated Christmas Tree.
Merry Christmas Everyone
🆕🔥New mechanic! Place wet souls into sponges to cool down scorching terrain and make your way through! 
For day 1085 of coding, I made sure that the text actually fades instead of blinking out of existence
