Have you got a sweet tooth?


Only a few days till Halloween, so why not create a Halloween themed game?

Pumpkin Blitz is a platformer that takes you down dark paths in search of sweet candies to fill your pumpkin with. Mind the skeletons, and the roaming ghosts. They'll send you back to the beginning.

With each game I make I'm learning something new, or strengthening skills I've already learned. For Pumpkin Blitz I spent a lot of time animating and modeling new creatures. With that I was able to make new traps for the various levels. Spring loaded spikes, buzz saws, skeletal hands that grasp at you, and spiders that descend from above. Put them all together for a spooky good time.

There are a few things I want to update on the game, like adding a pause menu, but otherwise it's finished and playable over on itch.io. I've set it to $2 but there is a half price sale this week so you can pick it up for $1. There are ten levels, and some nice music to go with them.

The challenge from Pumpkin Blitz came from figuring out new menus, having music across the whole game instead of restarting on each level, and really figuring out how to lay out an entire game to feel complete. I think I'm pretty happy with the outcome.
