The Adventures of Darsh in Offscreenland by mmoustafa

About the game:
We thought it would be funny if, instead of an adventure game where you play as the hero who goes on to the save the world, you play as the hero's master who gives him advice. Where all the action and world-saving happens conveniently off-camera and we finally get a perspective of someone other than the hero. (Inspired by Ash's mom, perpetually waiting, patiently and very still)
The game kind of evolved over time, and we started a day late, but this is what we came up with. Hope this gives you a laugh!

Hahaha, so good.
I love the humour in this game, well done.
Well done, I had quite a laugh.
The writing is fantastic and I like the dynamic of a ninja and a peaceful monk.
The game felt really short though.
Darsh came to me while I was doing my game but I had to tell him no :(
But the correct run was funny. :)
