TurtleRun
For the best experience, download the game rather than playing in browser, the file is safe I promise :)
TurtleRun is a casual platformer and aims to be a relaxing but semi-challenging and interesting game based on our turtle protagonist, enemy badgers, and whatever other creatures/beings I see fit as development progresses.
My first ever game. Currently in "alpha", releasing frequent updates for you all to enjoy and provide feedback on. See my Devlogs for more details! Note: The game runs at much better performance when downloaded rather than playing in the browser, I'll probably remove the option to play in the browser at all shortly but it seems to get a few clicks so I'll keep it for now. The file is 100% safe.
So far I've added the core mechanics and created a replay-able four levels with 1 boss encounter. I've put about 190 hours into the game so far, mostly on development but I've tried my hand in the pixel art world as well, which as you can see, I'm a complete novice with.
I'm having a good time with my new found hobby and wanted to upload this for my friends to play as well as anyone else who happens to stumble upon it for some feedback on how I can improve and continue along the indie games dev journey.
I'm hoping one day this game looks and plays really well and any aspiring indie developers like me can see that we all have to start somewhere!
I'll be uploading updates to YouTube throughout the process, feel free to join me over there: https://www.youtube.com/@imCappiche
