Build-A-Body by ParanoidBigfoot

[raw]
made by ParanoidBigfoot for Ludum Dare 45 (UNFINISH)

As a soul with no body, you must build the body you deserve by killing enemies in dangerous matches*.

*No promise of dangerous matches

UPDATE: fixed the bug that caused the game to get stuck after equipping an item.

Controls: Mouse

Create chains of 3 or more tiles of the same type and press the "submit" button when ready. Press the "clear" button to clear your selection.

Tile types: * Heart - Heals you * Shield - You won't attack this turn, but the next attack against you will hurt less. * Sword - Melee attack * Bow - Range attack * Staff - Magic attack

If you manged to kill an enemy, loot will be dropped! Different loot have different modifiers, so experiment! But be careful! If you die, you will be turned into a soul again and would have to start over.

Want to change your equipment? You can do so after killing an enemy by clicking the "Inventory" button.

Good luck!

Ps: We are aware that is not possible to equip weapons. Sorry about it :( Pps: There is no win condition and the game might get stuck after visiting the inventory.

Hey, congrats on your Jam. I played it and at first it felt like any other match3 but later down road it starts feeling more strategical as well. Overall Nice game. :)

Funny thing is - I was working with same idea, although my way was really different :) (one of the reasons why I gave up on actually assembling body from parts was that I was sure I wouldn't be able to do that in time in a reasonable way).

I've tried to play for a while - marking the tiles is confusing and I wasn't sure how exactly it works. But what's more problematic is that most of the times I actually managed to get some loot and equip it, after closing inventory I still had dead enemy and couldn't do anything.

The @shigor problem happens to me too ( I don't know why game blocks after closing inventory) but I love the concept! Nice game ! Congrats ! :clap:
