My Most Ambitious Project Yet

For the past two weeks, I've been working on a project that may very well be one of the more ambitious things I do, a platformer game. Alongside racing games, arcade games, puzzle games, and party games, platformers are a genre I'm the most passionate about. I'm no stranger to the design that comes with making a platformer as I have been molded by the likes of Super Mario Maker 1 & 2 and to this day still try to find time to make courses in the second game in particular. However, I haven't ever done full hands on programming for a platformer up till now. It's a slow and steady process, but little by little I'll do my best to get this project done. Below is a bit of a teaser for what it'll be like (Note: some visual aspects are subject to change).

I also made my own sprites for the game by hand. See here:

What do you think of my progress so far? I hope that by next week I will accomplish enough to show you a bit more of the game. For now I hope you all will standby in anticipation as I make my first fully crafted platform game.
