Challenges

One of the main challenges was designing several unique levels that remained fun and engaging while sticking to the theme of the game jam in just three days. Additionally, I needed to create a tree asset from scratch using Blender, which was a learning curve. I also had to ensure smooth gameplay mechanics while programming the game in C#.

Learnings

Throughout the project, I significantly improved my game development skills, particularly in C# programming. I also gained hands-on experience with level design and asset creation in Blender. This project helped me understand the full cycle of game creation, from initial concept to final product.
