Unfair 'N Square
Unfair 'N Square is a 2D, somewhat fast-paced, somewhat difficult shooter-platformer. Your goal is to reach the mint cube at the end of the map while avoiding (or killing) enemies. If you do not finish the level in one minute or less, lava rises and you become weaker.
Use power triangles to increase defense and speed, explode barrels to kill nearby enemies, destroy crates for find goodies or detriments. Wallrun to reach higher places, crouch to reach smaller spaces and hide from enemies, etc. You can also press L to activate the slow-mo effect, which not only helps you in gameplay, but looks very cool.
Made for Mini Jam 184: Birds, under the limitation "Under a minute".

Really enjoyed this one, the difficulty definitely ramps up a lot in level two- where level one you can actually skip most of the early platforming.
I did manage to find- not sure if it's a bug exactly- but in the second level there is an enemy that needs to hit you twice to kill you, and also I was killed by falling on TOP of one of the grey blocks rather than it falling on me. I took a clip to show what I mean.
Overall lots of fun though great work!

Hey there again! Normally, enemies should hit you twice to kill you, it's just their physics engine makes them spin like that when they hit you, so they end up colliding twice. As for the gray blocks, that's a collision issue I ended up not fixing, since there wasn't much time.
Ah I see! That makes sense, great work either way- testing for bugs is fun for us so we were excited to find one!
Really nice movement, really enjoyed the game, good job!
