Mushroom Madness

Collect bottles of water that you can use to grow giant mushrooms and ride them to the flag at the end of each level. Once you have picked up a bottle, water a mini-mushroom and watch it grow.

Controls

Use a/left and d/right to move and w/up to jump. With atleast one bottle collected (yo can see how many you have in the top-left corner), press space while standing on top of a mini-mushroom to make it grow.

About the development

This game is my second KennyJam, though only my third game jam overall. When I saw the theme was growth, the first thing that came to mind was a platformer that used 'growing' platforms as a mechanic. After checking the available assets, I decided on mushrooms at the platform material, mainly because it was the only practical choice. Its also the first time I've created a platformer like this, so proved a fun challenge.
