Terra's Terrarium

This game was made for the Global Game Jam 2025 which theme was "Bubble".

Currently it's a prototype of a platformer about a chameleon (named Terra) that lives in a kid's terrarium.

The initial inspiration for this game was "Bubble Bobble part 2", from the NES, which I used to play with my brother as kids. With time, though, it took more of a platformer approach inspired by Kirby and Yoshi games.

In this game, the player can shoot bubbles using Terra's mouth (left mouse click) and burst them using its tongue (right mouse click).

When burst, the bubbles can then be used to impulse Terra further, which can be used wisely to create jump combos.

To walk around, you can use both the A and D keys or the arrow keys. To jump, use the W key or the Space Bar.

In this prototype version, there are only 4 stages, with the first being a tutorial and the last one being a very hard challenge.

Feel free to leave a comment telling me what you think! :)

Bug Warning

In this version, if you touch a beatle in a bubble with the chameleon's body, the beatle won't respawn, so you have to restart the level with the f5 key.
