We’re very excited to share our game for this Ludum Dare! The core idea revolves around playing a video game… inside a video game! We wanted to capture that retro feeling of figuring things out on your own, experimenting, and getting a bit lost in the mystery.

That said, there are a couple of things we didn’t quite manage to finish :sweat_smile:

For one, we really wanted to include an in-game manual, with hints and details in a classic style. We didn’t have time to implement it properly, but we at least included a small sample with a screenshot of the manual you can see in-game, presented in a more accessible way for the curious players...

And now a question for those who try it... Did anyone find the hidden ghost in the second dungeon? :ghost:

Technically, it’s a fully functional enemy, but we didn’t manage to integrate it properly into the gameplay in time. We planned to develop it further in a later dungeon… but we also ran out of time to add more levels before the deadline :cry:

Still, we’d love to know if anyone ran into it and what you thought about the idea.

Thanks for playing and for any feedback! :heart:
