Diamond Planet Scrolling Platformer - Parkour with Checkpoints

Diamond Planet is a scrolling platformer that tasks players with parkouring through obstacle courses to return home. The game was developed in response to community feedback, with strategic checkpoints added at key locations.

Controls & Features

Controls support both WASD and arrow keys for maximum flexibility. Avoid falling off platforms, as this results in losing progress and respawning at the last checkpoint. Press space to skip the intro sequence and jump directly into the action. The checkpoints were implemented specifically because many players requested this feature in previous games from the developer.

Development Collaboration

The game represents a significant collaborative effort: @Thepugmen created all art, gameplay design, and 60% of the code, while @noodlebot743 contributed the remaining 40% of programming. Intro music is provided by dimrain47, setting an energetic tone for the parkour challenges. Players are encouraged to join the official studio and share their scores in the comments.

Visual & Difficulty Design

The visual style features orange and space-themed elements with cube-based characters navigating through enemy encounters and dodging mechanics. Difficulty progression is designed to challenge players while maintaining accessibility, with each obstacle course requiring precise timing and spatial awareness.
