Minigame Competition - Sneaking

[Roo]

Alright, my entries done! Link: https://www.mediafire.com/file/5p2n8d2ht...A.zip/file

Mario - Cake Attack!!
Controls (can be changed from the options menu in game):
-arrow keys: move mario right and left, enter/exit crawl mode, and look up
-x key: jump
-z key: hold to run
-p key: pause/unpause

Game includes 2 ost modes: SC88 and BS (bandstand). The engine is a custom one built from the ground up in sdl2 with custom assets. also, the game is very very hard, the level designs aren't the best and are unfair at times. the main mechanic is lookout mode, where peach wakes up to surveil the castle for any signs of mario. it is indicated to by the blue tint fading out gradually. once it begins, a yellow light is emitted, and it travels throughout the room back and forth. enter crawl mode and you should be safe when the light hits mario. if you aren't in crawl mode, mario will die and loose a life. you have 5 lives to complete 4 levels each composing of 2 rooms. couldn't add all the levels i wanted to, but i think what is here should keep you busy for a few minutes. hope you guys enjoy it!

to complete a level, collect the cake at the end of the second room. the first one is obscured a bit by the hud, it's in the top left corner.

I definitely agree on the "very very hard" part. I like the graphics and music, but the difficulty just makes it annoying to play (and the wind pipes (or whatever they are) are one of the most annoying obstacles I've ever seen in a game).

Also, is this jump actually doable, or are you supposed to jump over the top wall to the other side?
