It's a Living!

Vertical slice game project for COMP3150 2023 at Macquarie University.

It's a Living is a sandbox-style first person platformer where you save the spirits of lost dogs by shooting high-velocity doggy treats at them, then collecting their little doggy souls once they're suitably happy. Use your environment by running on walls and bouncing through the air to collect all the puppers as fast as possible, finishing the level as fast as you possibly can to get the best score.

Can be played using  Keyboard+Mouse or controller. NOTE: menu options must be clicked using the mouse.
