Crazy Jack

Embark on an epic journey with our resilient protagonist, 
Jack, as he confronts a myriad of challenges. 
Armed with a dazzling array of imaginative drawing tools, 
Jack's creativity becomes his greatest asset on this thrilling adventure.

Crazy Jack is a 2d platformer game with a drawing mechanism designed and developed by my team, Anxiety. My main role in this project is a gameplay programmer, implementing game mechanisms, designing and building game levels.

The player can use different types of drawing tools with different properties and costs to draw in order to reach the destination in each level. Each level has ink limitation, the player needs to use ink in a proper way. The player can self-decide how to use the combinations of different drawing tools to help them clear the level.
