Path of Alterity by Sartemis Smart
"Path of Alterity" is a procedural maze game.
A group of young people expected to have a party in the forbidden hut out of their village.
But the place mysteriously broke their souls in two disticts parts, seperated by a huge mirror.
You have to reunite the two separated souls in the center of the screen, using the ARROW KEYS in order to save one character from the group. But keep out from the spikes of the enchanted roots progressing in the room !
In NORMAL MODE, the game is turn-based, lasts 10 rounds and the roots will grow each turn. You'll have to save the 10 characters to win.
In CUSTOM MODE, the game is timer-based, YOU choose the length of the game and the progression speed of the roots.
Use ESCAPE to reset. Use Q to quit.
Have fun and we hope you'll enjoy our little game ! ;)

One of my favourite entries, that's for sure!
One slight issue though, I would suggest that some of the collision detection is a tad unfair. (see my crude example below!)

About the single lost soul, yeah it's unforgiving and not really friendly to the player, we should have changed that !
Even if the gameplay is classic (but still efective), the atmosphere of the game is really enjoyable thanks to really good graphics and music :)
