Eat the Sun!
My entry into GMTK Game Jam 2024
"Built to Scale" - your blob will grow in size, so don't get trapped! Get to the exit before you are too big. The levels will grow in scale, as you try to escape confinement and eventually... Eat the Sun!
Switch to full screen (button in bottom right of game) if you are using cursor keys.
Controls:
WASD or arrow keys, or gamepad.
Press Back / Esc / Q to trigger the game restart / exit menu.

This is such a goofy little game, I love it! It could use some more clarity or responsiveness, the first couple runs I wasn't quite sure why my blob died until I noticed it getting stuck in places mid-movement in a third run, and it takes a while to get another run started. But other than that, it controls very deliberately with a nice stagger for the blob motion.
