The game

Cone Catastrophe is a major milestone in my portfolio: the very first game I ever published. Built from scratch over a single weekend for the 2025 Mini Jame Gam (no, Jame Gam is not a typo), it kicked off my game dev journey.

Since the jam I've come back to fix bugs, optimize performance, and add a pile of new features for a polished re-release.

An infinite runner where an ice cream cone is trying to evacuate after the fire company takes over town. Dodge fireballs, grab powerups for new abilities, and collect coins to buy upgrades in the shop on your way to a new high score.
