The Letters of Deliverance by BugByte14

[raw]
made by BugByte14 for Ludum Dare 51 (JAM)

The year is 2092

And in the world is something new

A man has made himself immortal

Within a land that's far from normal

He stands as awful oddity

With all his bastard progeny

A hundred fifty six his age

Beyond the years of any sage

His spirit lacks in wisdom whole

He thinks that he is in control

And yet tonight I reap his soul

Had some issues with trying to play the game. In Fullscreen on 4k text is cut off so could not read what to do. I do like the art style and the concept. Though

Couldn't attack anybody. But the graphics are really nice. I love the main character and how the text is design/placed in the map. Great potential!

Won't rate just now, game doesn't seem to be working correctly?
I can swing the scythe at spawn, but I get reset if I do it anywhere near the people?

Art is nice, but I'll wait to rate the game properly in case the author uploads a fixed version

Giving tips and game info via poems is very interesting idea, but sometimes the poems were more confusing than helpful :sweat_smile: Nonetheless, good job on the entry! :slight_smile:

Amazing game. Really catchy graphics. Some work can be done from the gameplay side and can be a made abit more complex. I think the 10 second rule did resistricted a lot of possibilities. Please do check out my submission as well.

Never managed to hit a single enemy with the scythe. On the other hand, the infinite piercing gun made the game trivial.
Fun nonetheless, nice work!

I really like the sprite design of death :D Even with the scythe fix I had a lot of issues, and I don't know if it was me or the game, but I experienced some weird collisions and I couldn't quite get the timing of the scythe.
