Sweeper's Game
Space cadets known as "sweepers" engage in combat games to prepare themselves for war. But are these games really just simulations?
In Sweeper's Game, the minesweeper board serves a dual purpose as a map for your spacecraft. Solve the minesweeper cells to determine where the wormholes are hidden. Then, navigate your spacecraft between the cells to make it to the end.
Hidden amongst the cells are powerups for your spacecraft, which you will need in case you fall into a wormhole!
Developed for Global Game Jam 2022, and won a "honorable mention" at the Playcrafting site. Programming, art, and design by me. Uses a from-scratch 2D prototyping engine that uses OpenGL on Windows, and WebAssembly and WebGL on web.
