About this project
This was probably the most fun game I ever worked on during a gamejam. Early on we decided that we wanted to create a platformer where multiple people would have to race against each other. We thought about implementing simple local networking so each player could properly see their character on screen. However, we quickly dismissed the idea due to previous networking experiences at gamejams. Someone had the idea to use different views for each side of the tower rather than following specific players. By arranging 4 monitors in a square, we could give the impression of a tower in the centre of them. The idea worked out and the final game is truly unique and special because of it.
