The Little Giant

Play as the Little Giant as you make your way through a series of increasingly challenging platforming stages. Unlock new abilities along the way to increase the ways in which you can move throughout the world.

*Gamepad and Fullscreen strongly recommended.
*Gamepad support is touch-and-go in HTML export, consider trying the desktop build or sticking with keyboard controls on web!
*Mac users: only verified to work correctly in Safari (Chrome has issues).

Known Issues:

• Gamepad support varies dramatically between browsers and for different controllers, consider a desktop download to experience better controller support.
• Player character can have strange behavior if you grow into a space that you are too big to occupy.
• Player character can shrink in situations where the player was able to grow into the space.
• Windows build sometimes crashes when trying to move to the second level in the original build.
  • Turns out the issue was related to a specific Godot build bug in the version I'm using. A new version of the Windows executable has been uploaded that is in 'debug' mode which seems to fix the issue. No code or functionality changes made.
