Made with Edward Atkin.

Tennis Tower is a game about scaling a tower and picking up treasures along the way. It was made by the process known as "Gamedev Tennis", in which a dev makes a game and sends it to another dev who adds a level then sends it to the first dev who adds a level and sends it to the other dev etc etc etc.

Additional challenge:

Played this game to understand the wizard run lore XD

so what did you understand? :o

Although i felt a connection between the two but i feel like i didn't learn much ๐Ÿ˜…. i feel like the player in the Tennis is the same character that warned us about joining the Bounce apostle in the Wizard Ran #2 (same hat and same clothing colour if i am not mistaken).

However, something that i am still struggling to understand or come up with a plausible theory about is that the lore tower in TWR2 talks about two entities playing together to create a world and add to it. But, in this game you are actually starting as a weakling and in the end you become a player in the gold area. Does that mean that the "outer entities" are just people who ammased crazy powers and items  (just like the universal theif universe)๐Ÿค”

"outer gods" is just a word I use for players. They usually inhabit a vessel.

Aha. That makes so much sense now ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ

You cant get the zombie tree chest if you got the meat skin first ,also no items is brutal

We'll add a few balance fixes :)

Still lower the difficulty curve on the first 3 keys level and maybe remove some of the rng of the wizards

Might work on that for the next version!
