Stacking Trouble

Stacking Trouble is a game that (poorly) attempts to re-create Stack Attack game that came preloaded on old Siemens phones. The goal of the game to organize falling crates into a row by pushing them. Once the bottom-most row is filled, it is discarded and points are awarded. Crates can also be destroyed by jumping and hitting them with the character from underneath. 

Version 2 of the game adds the following features:

• Power-up crates - health crate, double speed crate and explosive crate.
• Difficulty mode selector.
• Ability to pause the game without exiting.
• Proper graphics and animations.
• A menu displaying controls as well as in-game "how to play" tutorial.

This game was originally made for the Langjam Gamejam, the goal of which is to create a programming language first and then write a game in it, all in 7 days. Stacking Trouble is written in Bla - a very Python-inspired dynamically-typed imperative interpreted programming language. The compiler and the interpreter are written in Go. 

The language supports:

• Functions/Function references (i.e. virtual calls).
• Lists/Objects.
• Loop/If statements.
• Global constants.

Check the repository on Github for the source code.
