Welcome! My name is Ewan O’ Sullivan, I am a first year student in UL and this a development diary for my time as the producuer of my game called Cold Caves which is a platformer with a unique gimick with it’s main character Eddie is made out ice and slowly melts as the level persists. This is a game that encourages and rewards speed and is accompanied by quite a satisfying glass cannon style combat system. Any questions you may have right now about can all be answered by reading the diary entries listed below that I updated weekly as development for the game went on. (By the way if you get lost at any point, the little Eddie icon in the top left will take you back here to this Home screen). Links for downloads can be found in week 12.
