Leaping Las Vegas

Leaping Las Vegas is a side scrolling platformer with a twist. The player controls the platforms to help the hero traverse the world. There are 3 different platform types that can be placed down anywhere in front of the hero. You can choose to give the hero a bounce, to give him speed or to slow him down. The hero will never stop running so it is up to you to place platforms down in just the right moments to help him rescue the queen. 

Controls: Left click to select platform and then another left click to place the platform in the world or you can use numbers 1-5 if you prefer to keep your mouse ahead of the hero.

Controls:

Left click - Select platform 

Left click - Places platform after selection Number 

Number Keys - 1-5 to select platforms

Post Mortem:

This project was made for a 48 hour game jam. I was able to execute the intended design by keeping the scope of the project low and by keeping the Platforms simple. Most of my time was spent scripting and creating the the UI for the game, looking back I should have spent more time on polish, art and level design.
