THE LAST DUEL (THE LAST SEAR, alternative since it's in progress unfortunately)

LINK: https://horus90.itch.io/the-last-duel

2D action, arena, rpg, it was supposed to be dynamic, retro, "realistic", co-op (maybe even random dungeon exploring / survival with random waves) and skirmish, 1 KEYBOARD 2 PLAYERS (maybe more, with custom binding). Scene1 - CoOp Scene2 - Skirmish and so on. However, me being the beginner and having only one busy mate as help for JAM kinda bit more than we can chew in this amount of time plus getting a wee bit sick this last day didn't help (-.-), but I will try and finish this as previously intended since the mechanics and work behind this kind of game will come in handy for future work (solo projects, preparing for December :P).

Custom creation menu is missing, along with sounds, animations and many, many more :/

Oh, the theme: idea was - 2D game, starting with small flames in the background that keep growing, pointing that the fire is getting closer in which point COLLIDER would become active in bottom part of the screen allowing players to move "down", making illusion of depth, Z axis. And flames would become small again, indicating distance from players. So, less and less space. :)

Lore really caries this idea. =D =D

This is from concept.txt (thanks Sublime!).

BRIEF HISTORY

Constant strugles for power, wealth and resources lead to The Last Sear - lasting for circa 42 years, the whole, very small world(planet) of Bimundi is burning, leaving less and less space for it's inhabitants. As seen from above, less and less battlefield more likely.

Hopefully, at least Gods are entertained with this kind of grotesque.

PACT OF DUEL

To reduce the body count, a pact has been made. Three "great" leaders met under night sky on terrifying, desolated planes of Burnstride, vast, fertile land that's been burning for 42 months, non-stop. Instead of leading their armies, they decided that 1 duel, between their best of the best soldiers will decide the ruler of the remaining world. Time and space are scarced.

It is the End Time. The last duel ever fought is about to beging. Prepare yourself.

You're in final round.

RACES

Coldr - northen men, extremly frigid climate, winds and blizzards are common per day. + X% cold resist, HP ???

Warmd - southern men, humid air and extremly warm climate made them tolerant of very high temperatures. + X% fire resist, STAMINA ???

Highborne - mystic, some would say family, group elite that ruled before The Great Sear. Constant well nurishment and lack of stress made them more vital. ("Popularity" made them to become quick on their feet.) + X% HP, STAMINA ???
