SHOCKBOY - A Puzzle Game of Momentum & Destruction

My entry for GitHub's 2025 Game Off Game Jam. This year's theme: WAVES.

Harness the power of shockwaves in this physics-based puzzle game. Launch destructive pulses to move and shatter blocks, carving your own path through ten challenging levels. Master the timing and direction of your blasts to solve intricate puzzles and hunt for all 20 stars.

Key Features:

• Dynamic Wave Mechanics: Generate shockwaves that interact with the environment in unique ways—push objects, break barriers, or create new platforms.
• Physics-Based Puzzles: Each level is a sandbox of possibilities. Find your own creative solution by experimenting with force and momentum.
• Collectible Challenge: Seek out all 20 stars across the levels for an extra layer of challenge.

Controls:

• A / D → Move Left / Right
• Spacebar → Jump
• R → Reset Level
• ESC / P → Pause Game

Thank you for playing my game! Appreciate the feedback.

*MINOR POST-RELEASE PATCH (December-20th): Fixed the windowing problem that was revealing stuff that shouldn't be visible beyond the intended game margins (now, if on fullscreen, the game will have some rendering problems but I think this is still better...)
