Graphics ok, Sound simple. Loved the neverseenbefore-feature: If you die, see your score and you play again, that you will take your old score and start from there. Very nice feature! Eh ... yes.

The rest of the game is communicated very well, though, so it is immediately clear what this is about, that you collect souls to enable the shot, how the hammer windup mechanics work and so on, great job!\n\nI also love the upgrades and the decisions that go with them. This leaves a lot of experimentation to get a particularly good high score. The score board adds so much to the experience, it's such a pity that the score does not reset upon dying. I would have loved to try getting to the top, but it feels like cheating now, so I quit. I think fixing this minor bug is allowed as per LD rules and you could reset the scoreboard to make it fair again. Should you do that, shoot me a message and I'll definitely play the game again to see how far I can get.\n\nIt's a very good entry, and I had a lot of fun!","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld43\/125666-9f1d543d548da53308d5257456109be6.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/triger-mountain.itch.io\/anno-luciferus","text":"Shockk"},{"url":"https:\/\/triger-mountain.itch.io\/anno-luciferus","text":"Windows"},{"url":"https:\/\/triger-mountain.itch.io\/anno-luciferus","text":"macOS"},{"url":"https:\/\/triger-mountain.itch.io\/anno-luciferus","text":"Linux"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"37305","g_author":"1001751","g_event":"LD43","g_eventkey":"71","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"236040","g_title":"Anno Luciferus","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"111","g_commentcount":"21","g_site2_node_id":"125666","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"125666","n_urlkey":"236040","n_parent":"120415","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/43\/anno-luciferus","n_slug":"anno-luciferus","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"1751","n_created":"1543467387","n_modified":"1543858064","n_version":"389890","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":125666,"parent":120415,"superparent":9,"author":1751,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"compo","published":"2018-12-03T02:21:02Z","created":"2018-11-29T04:56:27Z","modified":"2018-12-03T17:27:44Z","version":389890,"slug":"anno-luciferus","name":"Anno Luciferus","body":"![ld43_volley_medium_02.gif](\/\/\/raw\/7d6\/z\/1ce94.gif)\n\n**:imp::fire: Cultists yearn to die in lava in your name.
