The Quest For The Cash Diamond

Thanks! Everything is super compressed and most of the sprites are all around 8x8 or 6x6. A lot of the effects are just applied to the output. The cave lighting just uses layer masking to give it that cool effect.

They're different. Construct 3 is interesting because the coding is block-based. I can code normally, but it helps me get stuff together quickly and simply. It's more designed on the creative side of things. The block-based system does have quite a bit of depth, and it's great for jams. There's a free version, but if you want to do anything serious or longer, there's a 100 dollar license that gets you unlimited layers and layouts and stuff. I highly recommend it if you prefer the creative end of game dev. The engine also runs in your browser (although it has a download version for offline as well). I would at the very least recommend trying out the free version: https://www.construct.net/en.
