To my knowledge, this is the first complete LD48 entry done in the Haskell language. This was my first time participating in the Ludum Dare.

HOW TO PLAY:

You are a lone king.

You are being chased by an enemy army.

To win, you must escape to your castle.

Use the arrow keys to move.

You lose if you run out of health.

You have no weapons, but you do have a crown.

If you press SPACEBAR, you will toss your crown onto the head of a nearby enemy (HERE TAKE THIS), which will trick the army into thinking that it's you.

Don't worry, you've got a pile of crowns back at your castle.

The dirt path leads in the direction of your castle.

Enemies are faster than you, so try to hang them up on obstacles.

Enemies getting hung up is a legit gameplay tactic, dammit.

There are only 5 levels in the game. I know that sucks. I'm sorry. Have fun!
