Are You Alone? by Zesh26

[raw]
made by Zesh26 for LD22 (COMPO)
Wow, what a compo *sigh*. I can't believe I actually got done what I've done, yes, I could have done a lot more but it was my first time so I can use that as the excuse xD The game is very simple; explore the cave, going down ladders, beating ghosts, collecting diamonds and finding the treasure chest.

-Controls-
Arrow keys - Move player
Space - Attack * Only use the SPACE key when there is an enemy in front off you as there seems to be a bug that will sometimes allow you to battle an enemy even if its not infront of you ;D *

Damn! Definetly doing this again xD

It's very buggy. Are the ghosts supposed to move? I seem to be attacked by them invisibly at random, and then discover their dead bodies later on.

This may be a side effect, but it seems impossible to progress - you lose too much hp.

No the ghosts aren't supposed to move, maybe I should have mentioned that. I didn't get much time to test it so I would assume there are bugs with the game xD but for the ghosts to attack you randomly just won't haappen. Ghosts retaliate when you attack them. I've just tried the game and it seems that if you press the SPACE key to attack even if an enemy isn't in front off you the battle will commence but that only seems to happen sometimes. So I would suggest to anyone else playing to only use the SPACE key when an enemy is front of you.

Well because of timing issuses I didn't get to create the amount of levels I wanted so I beefed up earlier enemys ;D Mind you, you don't have to fight all of them, you can walk by some.

I encountered the same problems as triplefox. Also, the colors of the graphics suggest the game takes place outside.

A good attempt, however the bugs prevent from having fun... but I see this could be fun if you had more time, nice job for a first game! :)

Ah, too bad, was hoping it would run under WINE or whatever else.

Very nice game!
Make the movement a little bit smoother and clean some bugs and will become a great game!

Booyah! The movement was actual good but it was a little slow so whilst testing I sped it up and forgot to remove that xD
