Into the Maw - Ludum Dare 57

This is a tech demo/prototype for a 2D platformer made during/for the 57th Ludum Dare game jam. Below is the original description for the submission.

Quick platformer-style game. WASD/arrow keys, X or left click to attack, space to jump, E to interact.

Had less than 10 hours to work on this so it’s barely even a tech demo. Still wanted to make something for this jam, and I think the “ending” is kind of funny and ironically on theme, so here it is. Main goals for me here were to architect a solid backbone for any kind of 2D platformer, including getting that nice 2.5d style parallax effect working smoothly and easily with the rest of the workflow.

Bug fix log pre jam end:
