Lifebound

This is my entry for the Brackeys Game Jam 2021.1 ! The theme was "Stronger Together" so I came up with this concept of a Platformer/Metroidvania where you could bewitch the monsters and play as them.

How to play
Controls

• A/D : Move
• Space : Jump, Double Jump, Hover (hold)
• Left Click : Attack
• Right Click : Secondary Attack (Bind / Dash)
• S : Quick Fall
• W : Enter
• Q/E : Switch Character (Previous/Next)
• 1 -> 4 : Switch Character (shortcut)

I advise you to play the game in fullscreen !

Tips

• The Snake Monster is a fast creature that can dash and do swift melee attacks. Beware of its speed if it's chasing you !
• The Juggernaut is a heavy undead creature that doesn't bulge much when attacked. It can perform powerful melee attacks and quickly strike down opponents.
• The Fire Fury is a powerful demon that can cast quick spells to strike down its foes. It can double jump and hover to unleash a series of projectiles from above.
• If an area seems unreachable to you, try using the agility of some monsters.
• Look out for cracks in the walls ! You will most likely find some health or some new paths by destroying these cracked blocks.
