The current demo on Itchio is old , as it was made one year before.
I will update the demo soon. Don t hesitate to test and give feedbacks.
**Current dev status **
- 7 levels are done on 8
- 3 difficulties levels are working (easy with unlimited lifes, normal with 3 lifes by level and hard, with no checkpoint)
- Password system is working (to keep level progression)World map is done
Next steps
- debug and add Special Attacks
- add shield
- add bosses (level 3 to 8)
- Finish level 8
Extra Bonus if i push the dev further
- Save system

- Select level on world map with alternative levels
My first objective game is to be similar to old action platformer (mix between castlevania, ghost n goblins, Actraiser), with few modern gameplay.
Do you think it s a good idea to add the extra?
In easy mode and in each level, you will encounter 3 statues, don t hesitate to take a rest, save your progression and refill you health.
