Lives System for Game Development

Posted 6 days ago

Worldwide

Summary

I need someone to create a sample of the Lives System for a game. Each run starts with 2 lives. If the player makes a mistake and the balloon touches the ground, they lose one life and immediately respawn at the beginning of the level. If the player loses both lives, the run ends, and they must start a completely new run from Level 1, losing all progress made during that attempt. The goal is to create tension without making the game overly frustrating. Players have one chance to recover from a mistake, but completing a full run still requires consistency and skill.
