Loot Box Catcher
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
This game is my entry for the Surprise Pizza Jam (January 2019).
Theme
“Your take on a modern game cliché”
Make a game that highlights/improves a mechanic/technique you don't like in modern game design.
I chose "Loot boxes and microtransactions".
Description
It's an Ape Escape inspired game, where you explore the map to catch all the loot boxes.
Can you catch them all ? Will you open all of them ? Will your bank call you after you finished the game ?
Note : The game has no sounds.
Controls

It was well worth doing all that platforming. That whole end section is fab. That Lorem Ipsum joke made my day.
Also the level style made me miss my Banjo-kazooie days.
Thanks for jamming! Enter the next one on March 22nd, yo
Jambes
Thanks !
Always glad to make people's days with my stupid jokes.
As always you can be sure I'll enter the next Pizza Jam.
There's something wrong with your game, when you press start it automatically takes the player to what I assume to be the end screen.
Yes, I forgot to remove a variable that triggers the end of the game. I'm trying to contact ComputerJames to upload a fix.
The game have been updated. Now the game is playable and can be completed.
Hope you will try again and change the ratings you might have given, have fun !
