Description

Rocket Arm Man is a 2D physics-based platformer where your only means of transportation is the knockback from the explosions of your rockets, also known in the gaming community as "rocket jumping". The catch is, your rockets are your arms, and your arms don't grow back. Use your strange super powers to traverse 20 levels of increasingly difficult obstacle courses while you spiral into insanity from their rage-inducing nature.

Flexible Level-Editing Code

Developed an intuitive and reusable system to create new levels, speeding up development process.

Reusable Assets

Rocket Arm Man was developed with the future in mind, and created different reusable components ("prefabs" in Unity), such as red lasers of death which can be easily dropped into any level.

Interactive GUI

With my video editing and animation background, I knew that even the smallest details contribute to an overall professional and cohesive UI and UX. What you see here is the cursor in-game following a script to animate its rotation based on the velocity of the mouse.

Inclusive Design

Subtitles, video tutorials, subtitles, graphics settings, and supported for Mac and Windows, Rocket Arm Man was designed with accessibility in mind.
