#1GAM Game 3: Endless Q

In January of 2016 I challenged myself to make 1 new game every month, for a year; 12 months- 12 games. This is one of those games.

March was absolutely insane at work as we drive towards a major deliverable on Gear of War 4; working 14+ hours a day, and often well past midnight. But I was able to keep my weekends mostly to myself, and for the few hours a day I am awake while my daughter is asleep, I managed to keep my one-game-a-month goal alive!

This months game is “Endless Q”. It’s Pac-Man Championship Edition meets Q-Bert in this frantic, modern take on the classic gameplay.

There isn’t too much to say about the development. I had hoped to add a lot more enemies, and make everything feel a little bit “juicier”, but just ran out of time. But what is there is (I think) really fun! It’s fast, and responsive with the short gameplay loop that seems to hook the people that have played it so far. Exactly what I was hoping for.

It’s free as usual, and available on Itch.io.
