Godot Wild Jam #67

This game was developed as a submission to the Godot Wild Jam #67.

Wildcards

This game fulfills the "Gridlock" wildcard, since all movement in the game takes place on a grid. Not much else to say here.

I approached the "RoShamBo" wildcard by by implementing a type system with three types. Magic deals double damage to Melee, Melee to Ranged and Ranged to Magic.

I did not have time to implement the "Silliness Switch" wildcard.

Developer Comments

For some reason I decided that the game needed 45 character sprites, so making the art took a lot longer than I had initially planned. This caused some other assets to be omitted entirely, such as a town background and battlefields.

In general I had hoped to achieve more with the game, but as is the way of jams, I ran out of time. Still, I am glad that I managed to get it into a playable state before the deadline.
