Appalachian Seed-A-Pult

This was created for the 2023 Global Game Jam. 2 days, 4 members, through the Pittsburgh Bit Bridge location. Our entry is here: https://globalgamejam.org/2023/games/appalachian-seed-pault-7
Details:

Our game jam submission takes "roots" to both its literal and conceptual levels. It is themed around our home area (roots) in Western Virginia Appalachia. The idea is to launch seeds from the area into the air to successfully root into the soil and sprout. For this prototype, we only did three levels. The backgrounds in this prototype are modeled after some of our favorite landscapes: Cooper's Rock, New River Gorge, and Douglas Falls. The seeds are dandelion, toadshade, and paw paw. Adjust conditions with clicking on sliders and press space to launch.
