Games (v3) - A Continuously Updated Platformer & Maze Collection
Games (v3) is a multi-genre project originally released in September 2016, featuring platformer and maze levels that have been actively maintained and expanded over several years. Built on a platforming script by moocow with thumbnail art by attendance, this collection prioritizes gameplay over high-fidelity vector graphics.
For fans of classic platformer design and incremental updates, Games v3 offers a living archive of development.
Core Gameplay & Controls
Core interaction is simple: press the button to play, with full instructions provided in-game. A significant update on January 13, 2019, introduced two new platformer levels and fixed a wall-clipping glitch that allowed level skipping. Maze levels also received attention, with a critical fix on February 11, 2019, ensuring that reaching the end correctly advances the level.
Achievement System & Quality of Life
Achievement hunters can earn recognition; a "run achievement" requires scoring 100 points, and an achievements page was added on January 15, 2019, displaying placeholder text ("You don't have an achievement yet") until unlocked. Later quality-of-life improvements include extending the display duration of the "Achievement get" banner and polishing level edges.
Level Design & Testing
Level designers eased the difficulty of levels 5 and 8 in the platformer section, ensuring all levels are possible as tested by @moocow1324. The project remains a living archive of incremental development, complete with death sound effects by MajesticPie and a sound button script assisted by thereisalwayshope.
