Snack Chads is finally complete, and ready to be played!

Have a go at my attempt to replicate Mario's gameplay, and a small part of my life! Four quick levels to run through!

Chads.. with snacks?​

Yep! Well.. The character isn't a chad judging by art, but definitely a chad in spirit! The game's got four levels that you can play through, speed run, enjoy slowly. Perhaps you can spend time trying to break the game.

I'm sure that last one will happen.

I fixed all the bugs!

— Me before finding a bug

Today marks game #6 complete after a long time, and with a long break in-between. However, I'm proud of myself to have pushed through despite that, and go all the way to complete and release it.

As always, this game definitely is the best one I made so far, perhaps not that much in visible gameplay, but technically it's a lot more work than all previous games have been.

A part of real-life​

A small one, but an important one. I like to take walks, whether it's just for physical activity, or with some specific goal in mind. I do a "snack walk" almost every single day, which is a decently long walk that always results in the purchase of a small snack.

This quickly inspired me to theme the mario clone after these walks. Oh, and that immediately gave me the idea for the game's name.

"Snack walk" + "Mario Bros" => "Snack Chads".

A development post will become available at a later time, where we'll talk about the advanced player controller, and composition. Please look forward to it!

Let's play!​

The game's available on itch.io, so give it a try and let me know what you think! I'm certain you'll have a nice time!

Thanks for playing! ❤️

It'd be my honor.
