Magical Fruit - GGJ24

This game was made as part of my first ever game jam, Global Gam Jam 2024. Even though this is not the complete game that my team and I imagined, we were all still incredibly proud of what we were able to accomplish as a group of game devs who are all still early in our journeys and who only met that weekend. This version of the game is what was created and submitted at the end of the jam...with a few minor textual and visual adjustments that just didn't make it to the final build. We have talked about continuing to work on the project as team when we have the time, but I definitely wanted to preserve our game jam creation.

For those not aware, the theme of GGJ this year was "Make Me Laugh" and our game started with an idea about a farting wizard...which developed into a Tron/Snake-type game where the players would try to trap each other in fart clouds while eating cans of beans (inspired by the Full of Beans diversifier challenge).

Our ideal version of the game would include up to 4 players with the option of 5 selectable characters (wizard, skeleton, alien, bear, and unicorn). Art and voice lines were created for all characters during the jam, but there wasn't time for the implementation. Similarly, a variety of pickup items and ultimate attack skills for each character were prototyped but were not able to make it into the submitted build at the end of the jam. Keep an eye out for future DLC. ;)
