Evil Plans
A downloadable game for Windows
In this 2D stealth platformer you control the devil himself, and aid him to accomplish his nefarious plans. Sneak in, utilizing the devils abilities and follow through with his plans, everything will always work out, right?
Hello! This is my first ever game jam and first project that I release in public. I am really happy with the progress I made in this one week as a programmer (I hope you find the art appealing enough to give the game a chance.). Having to balance level design, art, sound design, mechanics, UI etc, was incredibly tough, but extremely fun. If you have any feedback, praise, criticism, please leave a comment below!
Also, I feel like I should mention this, but you can pause the game by pressing "P". I forgot to add that to the controls summary. Have fun!

Great game! It wasn't lagging for me. Unfortunately, I wasn't very good at it, so I didn't get too far. It would've been great if there were some checkpoints. Or if there were some already, make them more frequent. I also felt that the controls were kind of floaty, which made it a bit hard for me to control it sometimes. But other than that, it was great and the concept/story was interesting!
Hey thank you so much for the comment! I did not implement checkpoints. I was afraid the game was too easy, lol, I was definitely too out of touch, so I didn't want to add the checkpoints because of that. Time was also a big constraint in that. I am trying your game now! Good Luck with the Jam!
Love the art! really unique and looks awesome!
Thank you a lot! I was a bit afraid about it, I am an engineer with little artistic prowess. Could you play the game? I am trying to get as much feedback as I can.
The art design is cute!! and I love the music :))
Thank you for the comment! As this is my first ever released project, I am trying to get as much feedback as possible. Could you play the game? If so what did you think about it?
Watched someone play this on livestream and it wasn't that laggy for him.
…
my computer blue screened…
maybe cuz of the lag lol
Im so sorry! Thank you for the comment, I've been researching it for the past day ways to optimize the game since I saw your comment! I have some clues on what is causing the issues but fixing them may take more time than the game jam bug fixes window.
Sorry, I tried your game, but it's lagging too much for me. What I want to say is :
🫱You have an objective, a story this is good. Also, the music is good, and the drawings are great. I love the style.
🫱One problem I have is why you only used these graphics for the objects. The contrast with the walls or the floor feels strange. On one hand, you have a drawing-style for the assets, and on the other, a realistic "concrete" floor. Also, maybe the UI buttons in the start menu could be redesigned. You could change the colors to match the game's style (red and black), and I think it would fit much better.
That's all from me. Feel free to check out my game if you want it's much shorter than yours, I think.
Thank you for the comment! I am definitely checking your game!
I initially wanted to draw everything on the screen, but I quickly realized I would not have the time for that, so I decided to finish what I couldn't draw with the textures! I am an engineer so the UI/UX and art were challenging to say the least, but really fun overall. I like the UI buttons changes ideas. My game is just that one level, I wanted to have multiple but in the second day I scratched that out as well, lol.
