The Time I Reincarnated as a Teleporting Goat in a 2D Puzzle Platformer

Inspiration

We were inspired by our love of puzzles and wanted to build a fun and expressive puzzle game with a simple but interesting mechanic. We were inspired by Portal series and wanted to have similar mechanic in our game.

What it does

Our project a 2D pixel-art puzzle platformer where you play as a teleporting goat to solve environmental puzzles.

How we built it

We built it in Python using pygame, with JSON-based levels and a custom animated homepage. We also added a level generator using Gemini.

Challenges we ran into

Designing puzzles the hardest part. It was really hard for us to come up with creative and new puzzles that made us of all of the mechanics of the game.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We shipped a complete playable game that we found was really fun to play.

What we learned

We learned how to structure game states, manage animations in pygame, and design intuitive puzzle mechanics and safely convert AI output into playable levels.
