Meet <insert name here>, our protagonist!

Decided to use this kind of pixel style, since it’s both fast to do and looks nice in the eye
Pre-production is 95% finished, ready to actually do the dirty work!

Spoiler alert, this is how we did the dungeon/stage design, before implementing it in code:

Spoiler on the game's dungeon

LETS DO THIS- H..Huh? It already begin several hours ago?
Well, this is my first time doing this, here hoping everything goes well. Let’s do our best!

“We cannot escape our origins, however hard we try“. ~ James Baldwin
The quote would be the principal idea of our LD27 entry.

The concept revolves around a protagonist who tries to break free from a certain place (A dungeon?). However, a curse prevents him to do so, as every 10 seconds his time would be “reset”-ed, effectively returns him to his starting place. Interestingly, no matter how many times the character position resets, the environment around him will not. He also retains his memory of explored dungeons.

Thus, exploring the dungeon, relying on memories, solving puzzles, obtaining power ups, and opening shortcuts would be the key to break free from the curse. The game would be a dungeon crawler with Nethack-ish view.

Currently, i’m using a spreadsheet program to design the dungeon (spoiler alert!):

It will be coded in Flash, and will be compiled as a web game.

…I dont even know what am i doing ;~;

Too lazy to make a title screen – We integrate it with the game instead!

Finally with audio! Please excuse the (annoying) sound, those are the only ones we got ;~;
Now if you excuse me, i haven’t sleep well for days… The curse is taking effect indeed.

Play the game here!
