Overview
Dwarf with a Shotgun was a Game Jam project I worked on, blending shotgun-based platforming with tower defense mechanics. The game features five different buildings, three enemy types, and one determined dwarf. The core objective is to protect a slumbering construct that slowly drains your gold, the same gold you need to spend on building defensive towers to survive waves of enemies.
Players must explore the map, discover additional mining outposts, and locate four hidden orbs to awaken the construct and complete the game. This was my first time creating both a building and spawning system, and although it was a challenge, I learned a lot through the process.
