Trampoline Level: Initial Publish & Thoughts


A quickly made trampoline level where you can move a trampoline around and collect coins.  There is also a more challenging area you can get to if you can find it.

Press 'E' at the red handle to pick up the trampoline and then press 'E' again to drop it where it is.  

Press '7' to reset the level, and you will have to press Alt+F4 to close the game (sorry).

Enjoy!


The toy that I made is fun to play with because there is just something fun about jumping up and down to collect coins in the air. Also, being able to move the trampoline allows for more things you can do. I think jumping on trampolines is nothing new, but being able to put that trampoline wherever you want and coming up with creative ways to bounce even higher makes it a unique experience. I think having that higher platform is a surprising way to add a puzzle aspect to the game created. Having to set the moveable trampoline higher by bouncing on the second trampoline is a fun twist to such a basic concept. Also, collecting the coins on the way down is pretty satisfying. If it had a sound effect with it, it might make it even better.  


If possible, I would love to expand on this idea and make a puzzle platformer using these trampolines. I could definitely add different types of trampolines to create more difficult and fun puzzle levels. I think I could expand on this idea quite a lot.
