About Development

This is the first game our team has built to share publicly.

We tried to work within the time limit of 3 hours and wanted to make our own assets. Unfortunately, we spent more time than expected making the art assets. At the 3 hours threshold, the game was mostly just a few sprites that could move around.

Rather than releasing the game in an unplayable state, we decided to go over the time limit and finish developing the game. We had planned to add Clams as another basic enemy as well as a three-phase Swordfish boss, but clearly that was too large of a scope for this event. Making a game for TriJam certainly taught us that creating Art and Sound assets can take a long time.
