A downloadable Joe Candle

This is JOE CANDLE!

In Joe Candle, as time gets harder, mobs spawn faster. While not too difficult at first, you may find that the gun you're using isn't quite up to it. Decide what gun you will use in this action-platformer. Beat some of the platforming  puzzles to be rewarded!  Prepare as you go room-to-room, fighting a never-ending stream of enemies, before facing the final boss! Infinite mode after the boss!

Joe Candle is actually the result of my first every gamedev college course. This last semester I took an intro course on game dev that really covered basically the industry of game development. We got assigned a group to work with and we had about 2 months to work on the project. Over the 2 months we got together once a week to discuss and play test but I would take it home and try to work on it when I could before the following week. This game was a great learning experience. There are many things I would change about the game but I'm happy I managed to get a fully completed game done by deadline.

None of the art or music is mine. Because this was a class project, we used opengameart for practically all of our assets. This includes music and art. I don't have the list of all the authors of all the assets we used. However this was only ever supposed to release to our class so I don't have any licensing but I do know we only used assets covered under CC0-public domain.  Additionally, this game is only releasing entirely free, with no donations accepted.
