Hi! I'm Bob! I post fun 2D and 3D games at coolbobgames.itch.io!
pinned post!
I just released my game Fall Away for free on itch! It's a 2D platformer where you climb up a single tall level. It has unique abilities for you to master that I haven't seen in other platformers, like a silk trampoline and a teleporting kite.

2026 marks the end of a challenge I started in 2022! 🎉 To get good at gamedev, I challenged myself to release one game every week of 2022, month of 2023, season of 2024, and to make one year-long project for 2025. I fell a bit behind mid-2023 so I'm still making that last game!

For Christmas, I've decided to release some development builds, tests, and prototypes from my game Fall Away! You can play how much the game improved from its original prototype, Spring Climb. Happy holidays!

The new thing I'm making won't be done until next year, but I'll have some old stuff up on the itch before 2026.

What is this? A 2D platformer about a frog escaping a lab by pulling switches, pushing boxes, and jumping over acid named "Frog Escape"?

I would like to point out that this came out 7 months after Frog Escape 3...

I was reusing the code for the switches in the Frog Escape games today and noticed that something was being called weirdly... Then I remembered that was the first Unity script I ever wrote! Maybe you'll see those switches again soon...

If I don't feel like posting updates on here, it's because development is going poorly. However, if I haven't had time to post updates on here, it's because development is going well.

Here's one last video of my game Fall Away, releasing soon! This is layer 7 of 8, where you have every key ability in the game! The abilities are all very unique and powerful but tricky to wrap your mind around. The rest of the game acts as practice for this final gauntlet...

I've been working on some TV screens for the fourth "layer" of Fall Away! There are eight layers in total. This layer has a new teleporting kite ability and a digital friend who helps you learn to use it!

My last post showed the second ability in my new game, Fall Away, and here's the third! It's a grappling hook sticky hand! It's really hard to use at first, but once you master the aiming, you can do crazy things with it!

I've been working on a new game! It's a vertical 2D platformer with metroidvania elements, like power-ups, but the only backtracking you'll be doing is falling... ...a lot.

Beating a Frog Escape level is satisfying. You keep finding switches and flipping them to reveal new paths with new switches until you have the whole level open to you and the only path left unexplored leads to the exit.

These cute wooden sawblade enemies in Frog Escape 3 are called Buzzaps! Pulling them around feels fun. Just watch out for their blades!

I like to keep my older projects up online, even if they're a lot lower quality than my newer stuff, because the amount I improve between games says more than the isolated quality of a single one.

For a third solution, ride on the stone with the parachute. Most of these alternate solutions aren't intentional, but I keep them in if they're less obvious than the official solution.

I forgot to mention that both games also have no written instructions. In Locked On, you have to learn to use 3 types of lasers and fend off the sea creatures all on your own. This makes you feel stranded at the bottom of the ocean and gives you a personal bond with the main mechanics.

Forklift Fever is a score-chasing arcade 3D platformer about collecting gas to fuel a forklift that destroys the level! Get the global high score! Get the ending! ...Wait, isn't it endless?
