Helpers' view

The adventures of Hubert the bear
Summary:
An elaborate 2D platformer made entirely in C++ using SDL. The game requires cooperation and coordination through an interesting little feature. The game is to be played on 2 screens, only one of which is for the player's eyes. The other is to be looked at very thoroughly by (a) helper(s) for any signs of evil. The theme was 'dreams' and the game is about avoiding the horrors of a nightmare with the help of onlookers and find your teddy, Hubert.
Challanges and things I learned:
As my second encounter with SDL and C++ based game development I gained some invaluable insight into controlling 2D sprites, sprite-sheet animation, and also using git as source control.
