Very interesting idea/mechanic, its nice that the wizard helps you, I had fun using only the wizard for killing enemies at a safe distance, the only weird thing for me is attacking in the stairs, it happened only once so its not a big deal. I personally like the happy ending and the cutscene, good job!
The "holding hands" system is really nice (but a little bit uncontrollably) and have a lot of potential. Good job on this game.
thank you.
Yeah, if I'm gonna rework it one day, i'll probably take more time to figure out how to "handle" that mechanic.
Your game concept really struck a chord with me. The idea of taking a friend by the hand and leading them outside is something I've always imagined, and it pleases me to see it realized in what you have created. It's definitely something that could be developed further... Thank you for sharing your work.
Thank you, I'm happy you liked it.
A competently made platformer. It took me a second try to figure out that the prisoner shares your movement, but makes your jump weaker while holding them. Their attack is weak, but if it means it takes less hits for you to defeat each zombie, it helps.
My only problem is the "Happy Ending". These are not people with aligning motives, merely aligning goals.
You're certainly learning, but I think you're not challenging yourself enough. Come back in January and shoot even higher!
Thanks.
I'm aware this wasn't the best I could make, with my job I knew I wouldn't have as much time, so I aimed for something simpler. Next time I'll crank up the heat
