BACKGROUND
In 2015, I discovered a website called Kongregate. Then I discovered everyone else already heard about it; that for PC games, it is not too different from a browser-based Steam that allows smaller games to be uploaded - as opposed to games with a multi-million dollar budget. I figured this was a great opportunity - I am good at making small games! I am even good at making large games with tiny budgets.
So I began to play through Kongregate games to understand the kind of quality the Kongregate community expects and what common mechanics are included in many popular Kongregate games. After a while, I had my idea: a game that was so easy to learn that, if you wanted to, you could just use your mouse and nothing else to control the entire game. A game that allowed players to upgrade their character over time. Also: a game that not only used 3D graphics but required them to work correctly!

FEATURES

- Upgrade system that improves the player's abilities the more they play. Including changes such as: increasing the size of collectables' hitboxes, reducing the point penalty for using certain items, and improving the effectiveness of certain collectables.
- Upgrade system uses "credits" that can be gained by playing, but are also gained while the player is offline
