Repear by Waysneighborgo2

[raw]
made by Waysneighborgo2 for Ludum Dare 52 (JAM)

Harvest the souls of the people. Use your souls sparingly. Good luck ever finding the code. Reaper has you playing as a reaper with a scythe as he exits the simulation to find his master and he must harvest people's souls to power various portals.

Things to note: The scythe attack is quite weird, you have to be moving for it to activate.

Interesting game, although I ran into some problems. Sometimes the sythe attack refused to work, the first time i played it rarely worked and when I tried it again i couldn't get it to work at all!
I'll try it again if you write more of explaination of how to play, maybe I misunderstood something.

I like mood, graphics and audio!

The scythe attack is quite weird, to attack, you have to be moving.

Nice game, I think I finished it. But I didn't quite understand the end screen (some white lines). Really nice design, I am sure that when you solve that scythe attack it will work even better. Nice job, well done!

The death screens are pretty random. If you get to the cycling numbers at the end of the third level, then you've pretty much completed it, because I don't expect anyone to find the code.

Took me a minute to understand what I was supposed to be doing, but after I got the hang of it, it ended up being pretty fun. It's a clever little platformer and fits the theme pretty well. The scythe attack was weird, but it's a jam and that kind of stuff happens.

Interesting game, I liked the platforming, but the controls were a bit difficult.

Doesn't work for me. :(
Seems to load into the game but none of the controls work.

Cool game. Scythe attack could actually be possible without moving, but I personally didn't mind. Good job :D

I tried about a while and was actually about to give up on it before even managing to activate the scythe even once. And it wasn't so much that it's weird that I had to move as that there weren't actually any instructions what button to use, neither for the use of arrow keys, and that there was a jump. I didn't quite understand how to activate the shift thingy. My meter in the bottom right corner was full and I had reaped all people I could find.
