My contributions

Wall Pistons

Around the 20-hour mark, I noticed that we hadn't introduced any significant obstacles into the game yet. To add a simple challenge, I created a piston wall feature.

Character select

We needed the ability to select from multiple characters. Due to time constraints, I prioritized speed over scalability to ensure we could get the functionality working within the project's timeframe.

What I learned from this project

During this project I realized that I need to work on the ability to guess how long I would spend on creating something. In the end we did not have time to do some things that we wanted due to the time limit, causing the game not to feel complete.
