Pixel Vision 8: Jump N' Shoot Man LD 41 Edition

What happens when you take one of the best platformers ever created and strip away the ability to move or stop? You get Jump N' Shoot Man!  He has two abilities, jump (X key) and shoot (C key). Make your way through endless waves of randomly generated levels to see if you can get the best high score. Watch out for 3 different enemies, exploding spike balls and bottomless pits. You will have to manage your health and energy meters wisely and keep on the lookout for refueling pods dropped by defeated enemies. The fun never ends... literally, the game will keep generating new levels as long as you are willing to play!

Jump N' Shoot Man is a classic platformer build for the Pixel Vision 8 Fantasy Console in 72 hours during Ludum Dare 41. The Game Creator is a full development environment for authoring 8-bit games and is built on top of the open source Pixel Vision SDK framework.

Hello,

Pixel Vision 8 looks great but why is the unity logo displayed at the start of the game?

I have something to say: Pixel Vision 8 is probably going to be amazing.

Bugs i saw. It will occasionally create a 8 pixel gap in the floor when you restart from a game over. Also just jumping on a platform will cause it to trigger death after a game over.  There was no enemies on screen during these jumps.

wow.. great. I like the pixel art :D

yep, this is cool, but what are the controls on keyboard ?

Thanks, you can use A to start, X to Jump and C to shoot.

thanks you !
