forests of the forevers

2021 7drl entry. 2d platformer. every forest is a new adventure!  🌲🌳⛰️

note that sometimes the map will generate with a layout that you cannot finish, which completely breaks the game 😅, the current workaround is to refresh the page in thebrowser or if you are using the native version, restart the game. A future patch will solve this issue.

features:

• random dungeon generation
• random song selection
• near infinite replay-ability

Exported via Godot, tested along the way on web/macOS/Windows.

Please let me know if you run into any issues.

music assets from:

• Jed Lindbergh
• 2infamouz

Note, intermittent audio issues on Chrome have been observed where the audio is slow / stuttering. No such issue was observed on Firefox. Looking into a fix for the issue. 

art assets used:

• https://trixelized.itch.io/starstring-fields
• https://ansimuz.itch.io/sunnyland-enemies-extended-pack

godot template:

• https://github.com/GDQuest/godot-procedural-generation

ideas not yet implemented:

• random level names
• timer
• pickups
  
• score (based on pickups/time)
• ability to set the RNG seed for deterministic generation / easier replay-ability
• ability to reset the dungeon to something new incase the current one is not fun or broken
• more lighting effects
• more enemies
• control  remapper
• more accessible color schemes 

known issues:

aside from the browser weirdness noted above,

• the respawn sound will sometimes lead to odd overlap with the background music resulting in a jarring sound scape.
• sometimes the map will generate with a layout that you cannot finish, which completely breaks the game 😅, the current workaround is to refresh the browser page or restart the game.
