A Sword and His Hero

A team effort by some guys from the Arch Reactor hackerspace. It's our first game development outing as a group.

The premise is that you're the magically intelligent sword being carried by a hapless hero. He's only got an eye for treasure, and will chase after it whenever he sees it. You can swing yourself in any direction to try to hit enemies, and if you really need to go somewhere your hero doesn't, if you hold down the mouse button you'll drag him in whatever direction you're pointing. This makes you go much slower though, so watch out.
