A downloadable game for Windows

Our Story, Thus Far...

You are the Mopheaded Robot - a heroic knight, feared throughout the land of Vinsteria by evil-doing scum. Namely, your arch-nemesis: the Broomheaded "Broomheed" Robot. Broomheed, fortified in the Vile Fortress, has enlisted the help of an evil sorceress, Liarheld, to manipulate the very fabric of the world around you, forever trapping you in the boring, training dungeon of Hodrick Hall, as the impatient monsters from Herdheckle Forest, Tagahni Desert, and the Enfickeral Caverns attempt to smite you where you stand.

This is a short little game that me and a friend made for the Inbound Shovel Game Jam. It is actually the first time either of us have ever uploaded a game, so I think we did pretty well. I did all of the coding and music, while Moon did all of the textures*.

The theme of the game jam was "Just Get Started", so our idea was that you played through the tutorial, and you get stuck in an endless loop trying to escape the tutorial as the main antagonist figured out how to manipulate the game's save file. The enemies from later stages in the game get confused as to why you are taking so long and come to investigate.

Can you escape the tutorial and "get started" with playing the actual game?

*Moon here, it was my first time doing proper sprite animations and a few of them are pretty crap. Sorry!
