Acid Rain

A mysterious rain is dissolving the world. As everyone else panics, it is you, Duke Duck Dude, who knows just what to do in a time like this: eat every last donut on the planet to keep them from going to waste. How many donuts are left in the world? How far will a lone Duck Dude go to get his noms? Play to find out!

Also, who knew a duck that eats donuts could control the weather?

Gameplay

About Development

This game was built as a submission for the One Lone Coder Codejam 2022. It is the first real test of a custom Java 2D game engine I am working on. The goal of the game engine is to utilize no outside libraries to force myself to learn more about how games are made (plus it is a lot of fun!). I worked on this game with a few good buddies I met long ago in college who are also interested in making little games in their free time. We hope you enjoy our first completed project!

If you enjoyed this project and you'd like to see how it was built then feel free to check out its GitHub repository!
