Tell us about your game!
In this game, you control Salt-Peter, an alchemist navigating a grid-based level, aiming to reach the exit without being detected by any Shadow-Guards. Both the player and the guards can move up, down, left, and right.
Each level provides a limited number of actions, indicated by a counter. Every interaction—whether skipping a turn, moving, using an item, or attacking—counts as an action. Your goal across all 12 levels is to reach the door while avoiding the guards' vision, highlighted in red, and ultimately retrieve the Philosopher's Stone on the final level.
Each enemy follows a looping set of actions. The next four actions of each enemy are displayed with icons, allowing you to strategically plan your moves to solve the level.
Extra Notes
Due to a bug, the levels in the level selector do not appear properly, so you will have to beat the levels without exiting to the main menu, sorry about that!
All visual art is original and was created during the two weeks of the Game Jam.
