Sad but Fred (KIT109 Exam Game)

Hey there, Fred is directionally challenged and needs some guidance! Can you help him get through the portals? 

Click the buttons on the screen to tell Fred where to go, but beware.. Controls themselves are a limited resource - you'll need to think carefully!

▶️ - Move Right
◀️ - Move Left
🔼 - Jump
⏹️ - Stop

Works on mobile devices! Yay!

(A game inspired by Sad But Ded by Alex Vilonen, built for my KIT109 Exam Game)

Features/Marking Spec

See here for full list

I think i've managed to get all features implemented, with exception of:

• General: 
  • Animated start of level title text (it fades, but not 'animated' in sense that it moves)
  • Animated end of level title text
• Level 8:
  •  Enemies have trails that change colour when they are close to the avatar
    (I forgot this was a thing until 1 day before submission)

Generative AI Use:

Note: Most gameplay scripts were created with development support provided by OpenAI's ChatGPT 4o. While generative AI tools were used to assist with code structure and syntax, the core game logic, mechanics, and script behaviours were directed, designed, and prompted by the developer (i.e, myself, Isaak Cole). The AI was used primarily as a tool to speed up implementation, debug issues, and streamline repetitive tasks - not to generate systems autonomously.
