Belly of the Beast
A downloadable game for Windows
Belly of the Beast is a Adventure-platformer made for Adventure Jam 2022. It follows the story of a 13 year old girl on a quest to save her brother. Set in a Dystopian world where every year, the government selects a child every year to be sacrificed to a monster that lives deep within a cave to prevent it from causing destruction.
It's my first fully made game and my first time making pixel art. The story and art is original however, I used YouTube to create the code (occasionally adjusting it for my needs). I used code from: Brackeys, BlackThornProd, MikeRoeGames, Alexander Zotov and Jimmy Vegas. I also used 2 font assets from 1001 Fonts.

Short, but pretty freaky! For your first time creating pixel art, that's not bad at all.
You might want to make the transitions a little quicker, it wasn't always obvious to me when I'd go to the next screen or that I still had to walk in from the left.
Hi - I like the background story. I've tried to play it but I cannot understand what I have to do - I mean when I see the first cave area when I reach the left side of the screen (jumping over the hole) it doesn't happen anything - what am I missing
Oh, you just have to walk to the right to get to the next part. Sometimes the transition to the next part takes a bit long. Sorry about that. I am not used to making games within a two week time period.
