Time Hero by altazar

[raw]
made by altazar for LD 44 (JAM)

The old hero went on his last adventure – to search for a magic lamp. He got through a lot of dangerous challenges to finally find it! Like in the tale, the Djinn appears to fulfill wishes. Unfortunately, it isn’t as simple as fairy tales, the sneaky Djinn twists the hero’s last wish, and he begins to die unnaturally by becoming younger. Only Djinn’s death could reverse the last wish.

In the game, you would play as an old knight, whose age depends on his health power. The less HP he has, the younger he becomes, the faster he dies. Be careful, every your action spends health of your hero, bring closer to his demise! The game has three endings. Good luck!

The aging mechanic works like a charm. Great job :smile:

seems a little slow on the actions, and i didn't figure out how to use the sword, but the graphics is neat.

Feels a little sluggish, but the aging mechanic works great and I enjoy the concept. Great job!

зная, что вы русские, напишу коммент на русском.
Мне очень зашёл первоначальный текст, жаль, что людомовская версия с чистым английским :D
Идея довольно забавная, классно, что чувак молодеет, из явных косяков, которые прямо раздражают - застревание в блоках и отталкивающиеся аптечки. Поправив эти 20% багов, вы бы сделали бы игру на 80% играбельнее С: но всё равно молодцы.

Really nice concept. I found the game pretty hard. It is a nice addition to have a cinematic at the beggining instead of just text!. I found the "health" bar a bit confusing, however the aging mechanics works very well!! Good job!

I like the concept but the jumpin (specially when flipping from one side to the other) it's super sluggish.
The animations and artwork are very pretty, I just wished it was a tiny bit faster.

Interesting game! It felt a little bit hard to progress very far because of how much jumping cost, and the fact that you can't dodge the attacks without jumping. But it's a cool idea - good job!
