You're a young adventurer who has wandered deep into a cave of werecats. As you wander in the dark cave, you accidentally step on a cat's tail. In retaliation, you are bitten and subsequently turned into a werecat. You must now find a way to turn back.
-Arrow keys to move
-X to jump
-Z to talk
-CTRL+R to restart
This is a short platformer for Major Jam 5. The theme was legends and the limitation was that the gameplay must reach beyond the game space. I implemented this limitation by making the cat's list and map image files separate from the game.
I like the map design, and the jump isn't bad. However, it's really counter-intuitive to have to wait for the text to disappear before talking to characters again. I ended up going everywhere on the map at least 3 times because of the combination of not realizing characters had multiple things they say and not being able to tell what items I'd gotten.
kimiyoribaka is right. Perhaps a button to go to the next dialogue? Give it a cooldown so you don't press it too fast. Also coyote time :). Other than that I really like the graphics especially the background and the beginning and ending cutscenes. :)
