*Reading the instructions below is essential to playing the game.

Goober and the Dolphins is a bullet hell where getting hit will make Goober grow bigger. You play as Goober, a mutant jelly jam fighting against dolphins who want to be the first person to kill Goober. This is the gift for gallonofouncs for the Secret Santa jam. This wasn't so polished since I was doing almost the whole game and since there was still school while the game was being developed.

Instructions:

Z to shoot, X to switch weapon and arrow keys to move. Press Z to continue in the title, comic and ending screen. Avoid bullets as they will make Goober grow bigger and if if Goober grows bigger, it will be so big it'll see space then it will explode and you lose. Also if you want to get technical, the hitbox of Goober is at it's leg so Goober can safely touch dangerous objects in other parts of itself. You can pick up to 2  food weapons (they shoot out food so the dolphin can be satisfied and therefore they explode) in the beginning with a choice of 4 food weapons to pick from.

Food Weapon 1: Fires goob food straightforward quickly.

Food Weapon 2: Fires goob food around Goober which disappear after a while. Also firing bullets 30 times will result in Goober shrinking.

Food Weapon 3: Leaves a trail of goob food that disappear after a while. Also, when equipping the weapon, getting hit will make Goober grow twice in size.

Food Weapon 4: Fires goob food aiming randomly. Also, the bullet's damage output depends on the size of Goober. The bigger Goober is, the bigger the damage output is.
