Beneath the surface of Life by ab200
Game is some kind of metroidvania if man can make metroidvania in 48 hours.
Main protagonist is killed man. Love of his sister was so strong that he hasn't die completely. He went astray to some sort of hell, deep beneath the surface of earth. There, he have to defeat death himself to retrieve his life.
Sorry for lame boss fight and starting screen, but I haven't enough time to fix it.
Controls:
z - jump
x - use item
c - change item
I's my first real LD. Before it i have taken part in Sharkjam (MiniLD#46), but it was mini in fact. This game is much better.
Have fun.
-=EDIT=-
I added Windows version in which you can change controls if you don't like standard.

Thanks for feedback. I just have fixed jumping - now you can't jump so high, but you should see platform on which you want to jump. I also added animation of taking hit according to your advice, and put on map several bottles with life potion more.
Added alternative controls if you hate standard:
space - use item
right alt - jump
right shift - change item

The jump seemed a little overpowered.
Nice feel to the controls apart from that and a good bit of slashing fun.
Other than that a nice game idea!
Oh the key mapping is tough to play with. I've never understood how games are mapped there so popularly XD
IT's quite hard but the wall jump mechanic is enough fun to keep you busy!
Nice first entry!
Things to improve:
+ More tuning/polish on controls and collisions
+ Sound Fx (https://freesound.org)
