Mechasaur vs Punchatron
A downloadable game
My submission for MechJam III, a short and simple low-poly arena battle simulator.
Take on the role of Mechasaur, a kaiju turned war machine that has escaped from the labs and is running loose through the city. The only thing stopping you from razing the entire city to the ground is Punchatron, the giant robot that originally captured you.
Will you emerge victorious this time? Or will your reign of terror finally be brought to an end?

My thoughts on the game:
This is my first game jam entry and I learned a lot about how to approach game development by entering this jam. Because I am very new to this process and I didn't have much of a plan when I started, I have run out of time. So there's no audio and you can't even exit out of the game (which I should probably have learned how to do first!).
This lack of completeness is a combination of my inexperience as a developer as well as a lack of time to include everything I wanted to before the deadline hit. I hope whoever takes the time to play this little attempt at a game will still have fun with it regardless. Thanks!
Update:
Okay, I quickly added a win/lose screen as well as a little bit of audio for some ambience! Very minor stuff but hopefully this will at least create a little bit more of a complete experience!
