To preface, I consider myself a fairly tech savvy person but trying to figure out how to make video game (even with websites that I didn’t need to code to make it) was very stressful. The website I used was fairly simple to figure out, but I still did not know what half of the words meant or how to edit it so it could be my personal style. However, I am proud of how much I could get out of it. I made a platformer game that I would definitely consider a prototype as I did not know how to make a finish to it. I think if I had the luxury of time on my hands I could make it more enjoyable, longer, and complicated. The game is simple: you use the arrows to move where you want and the space bar to jump. To kill the little slimes and flies, you just jump on them. I tried to make it somewhat difficult, but as a person who doesn’t play platform games, it is probably quite easy!
