Use of the limitation
The game follows the story of "The King of Thieves". This character is meant to be an antihero who is in hiding/exile, and just searching for safety.

Cookies eaten
My wife made really good no bake cookies with oatmeal and peanut butter. I ate about 2 and a half of these. I'm sorry I do not have the exact number. I hope this doesn't affect my overall score in the jam.

Neat little maze game, I understand you didn't have a lot of time so I applaud you for managing to put something out there! For some reason I really like the zoomed-in sub-pixelly font ^^

Developer

Thanks for this I really appreciate it! the pixelly font was unintentional at first but then I liked it. I plan on making larger games in the future for jams. :)

Cool little game. The gameplay is nothing innovative, but it was well done and had some nice pixel art. But that music though! I don't know if it was written specifically for this game or is it royalty free, but the music in this game is awesome. Well done!

Developer

Thanks so much for the feedback. I knew the gameplay wasn't really anything haha I just wanted to practice with godot 4 and put something out there in the time period and besides that I wanted to focus on making everything look and sound nice so im glad you liked my music selection. Originally I was going to get my brother to do the music, but he didn't have time so I did royalty free music.

It's a neat little maze game. The pixel art for the enemies looks really cool. The soundtrack is great too!

The pixel style was really well implemented!

Developer

I'm glad you thought so! The artist did a great job! Here is their itch.io page if you're interested.

Fun experience, could use more content and interaction like teleporters or buttons to open/close paths maybe. It is short but the quantity is really well made.

Also please consider doing a web build for your future gamejams, as this is much more practical than having to download the game.

Developer

Hey, Phoque! I would have loved to do that. I honestly didn't spend much of the jam on this game. I decided to take care of some out of jam responsibilities and just wrap up the game once it was playable. Thanks for checking it out though, I'll do more in the future!

Developer (1 edit)

Also, I really did want to do a web build, I'm just new to Godot 4.x and I didn't know how to get it to work. I've heard Godot 4.x hasn't gotten the web builds worked out yet. I will for sure figure that out by the next jam.

We fell in the same trap and didn't realize we couldn't export a web build with godot 4 until it was too late! Something to be aware of next time around.

The game looked really good! The vibe of the whole thing had a super nice old-like game aesthetic. The gameplay was surprisingly intriguing as well! I did escape and it was just difficult enough to keep me invested ;) Overall, great job on this and on getting it done with many restraints that you told me that you went through!
