I love the aesthetic even with the super simple characters and barren world. The music was great and helped set the mood.\n\nThe gameplay reminded me of dynasty warriors, but without any of the fancy combos. I thought there were some mechanics that I just didn't get but after a few playthroughs I realized they were just glitches. \n\nSome times I would just go to the spirit world for some reason without dying. Jumping is also totally broken. Any time I pressed space, my character would enter the jump animation and float upwards extremely slowly to the apex of the jump, and then come back down at the same speed. While locked into this animation, the enemies can just spam attacks on you and drain your health.\n\n\nThis was an ambitious game and you guys put a lot of work into it. Clearly the time constraints led to a very barebones and unfinished product like most LD games, but you did manage to lay the foundation for something really cool. If you decide to spend more time on it post jam and polish it up, I think you might be able to salvage a very solid game.\n\nHack n slash games are always fun but you would need to add a lot of missing parts like hit detection, more varied attack combos, specials, finishers, item drops, some sort of progression system, and a more detailed world\/characters.\n\nGreat job creating such a unique experience","likes":2,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld47\/221240-f60fbc452db7e64b8c71577e43707e4d.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/lerpish.itch.io\/ouroboros-the-cursed-hero","text":"Youtube"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"57294","g_author":"1040144","g_event":"LD47","g_eventkey":"76","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"266414","g_title":"Ouroboros: The Cursed Hero","g_status":"PVT1","g_place":"1228","g_commentcount":"40","g_site2_node_id":"221240","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"221240","n_urlkey":"266414","n_parent":"212256","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/47\/ouroboros-the-cursed-hero","n_slug":"ouroboros-the-cursed-hero","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"40144","n_created":"1601667192","n_modified":"1602006685","n_version":"695636","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":221240,"parent":212256,"superparent":9,"author":40144,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2020-10-05T21:55:04Z","created":"2020-10-02T19:33:12Z","modified":"2020-10-06T17:51:25Z","version":695636,"slug":"ouroboros-the-cursed-hero","name":"Ouroboros: The Cursed Hero","body":"![Ouroboros.jpg](\/\/\/raw\/4b8\/53\/z\/391c8.jpg)\n\n\n\nOuroboros: The Cursed Hero is a Hack n Slash game where you have to kill enemies to unlock the final boss. when you die, you can navigate through the world of death, and, between tears and whispers, make your way back to life.

For a time, things were good. But something terrible was lurking within the temple of Uros. Decay was growing too strong feeding off of the many lives of men. Soon, the land was withering away before its hunger. Some men tried to flee, while others pledged themselves in worship to this new deity. \n  A few brave heroes even traveled to Uros in hopes of slaying Decay and breaking the loop of life and death, unaware of the curse they were about to cast upon themselves.\n\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HXR7r-1bkRI\n\n\nCoding, Modelling, Texturing - LERPish\n\nStory, Writting, Artwork - Victor\n\nSfx's, Music, Video - Aless","title":"Ouroboros: The Cursed Hero"}
