Concept
The concert for Shotgun Runner with a simple one. The player has a certain amount of time to reach the end of the level before he loses. The only way the player could reach a certain platform it's not only by jumping but also by using the shotgun blast to elevate him higher. Shotgun Runner was a game jam game done in 72 hours
Level Design
Level Sketch

The original idea for the level sketch was to Have enemies that the player would have to deal with. These enemies would be able to shoot you and if you were to shoot the enemy you would be moving backward. This created a risk kind of reward system if you want to deal with the enemies you would have to Shoot your shotgun which would then push you back outside of a platform.
Another original idea we had was to have Wall running in the game is the player did not execute the wrong while running correctly he would fall into the pit and restart the level. At the end both of these ideas how to be scrapped because of time constraints. The level was reworked to have more challenging Platforming
