This is a small level based arcade platformer created for 

Pirate Software - Game Jam 14

At first it may seem that game is very simple. But there are some shortcuts that are fun to discover during reruns.


Controls

You can control direction of your character with either AD or Left, Right  Arrow keys. 

Jump is executed with W, Up or Space. In later levels two abilities are available. 

First one allows to charge up projectiles by holding Left mouse button, S or Down

Second ability is activated by Right mouse button.


Sidenote

Some game mechanics are based on area visible by the player at individual moment.  Initial window ratio was full HD 1920 x 1080. Sadly we were not able to  introduce correct scaling into our web version. Playing with higher resolution can lead to graphical bugs. If you wish to experience the game as it was designed you should change webpage's scale accordingly (I have a monitor 4096 x 2304 and 50% scale fixed the game, but it was relatively small) 


This game was created by a team of 3 programmers called 'TPK'.

I love the look of the crisp pixel art character over the grid paper. I had some trouble groking the various modifiers/upgrades, but overall the premise is solid. Great job!

Thanks for playing and feedback!
