Voltex

A tool for prototyping 2d-platformer levels.

All information on how to create custom content and generate levels is contained in the README.txt file.

Reflection: 

The game demo I created was representative of the core loop I wanted. The user could prototype rooms and view generated levels that utilized those rooms.

Question: by only designing rooms, can a user create a set of generated levels that are unique and interesting?

Answer: Not with my tool. Users felt their potential creativity was being smothered by a limited toolset, and a lack of runtime elements made it too difficult for them to discern if their level was interesting.

If I were to change this demo, I would add modern user-friendly tools to the room editor and implement basic runtime elements into the level generator.
