Development Experience
The theme for the 2020 Game Maker's Toolkit Game Jam was "out of control." Before the jam had started, I was coming up with brief, one-phrase descriptions for a potential game concept to use for my project - one of which was "rotating controls."
With my years of experience making games in Construct 2, most of the game's mechanics were relatively easy to make. The only major hurdles I faced during development were creating the control-rotating and gravity-swapping gimmicks, since I couldn't use the engine's base "Platformer" behavior controls to achieve those final results.
This was my first time participating in a GMTK Game Jam, and while I didn't place very high (1149th/5343 entries), I am still very happy with the end result.
