The Accidental Adventure of Jim
Windows and Linux binaries available, or download the source and run it with Love2d :)
The Accidental Adventure of Jim is a pong RPG... thing. It was rushed and I really didn't have time for much combat, I hope you can look at what is there, though.
FAQ:
The art sucks.
Yup.
There's no sound/music.
Yup.
The dialogue is trite and childish.
Mostly.
I wish I had been able to do a couple more of my ideas :(

Hey, no I really didn't miss the theme, I just didn't finish the dialogue/story :P
My plan was to do 2 more levels after this one, and Jim the titular main character was to be a random convict, misinterpreted as a hero come to save the princess. He just wanted to escape from prison, but was forced into a role, I never quite got to express this, though :P

I'd add "it's too slow" to your self criticism. But you've scored with "It's too dangerous... errr" line :)

I was so happy when the first type of bad guy was 'bat', coz it fit the pong metaphor really well... I woulda liked it if you took the use of the minigame a bit further in story.
Agreed that pong was too slow, especially once you started having to win a number of times...

Cannot skip cutscenes... text is slow, cannot skip. Combat pong is an interesting idea but gets old very fast. Loved the tie in for the old LD theme.





First I thought you have to escape the dungeon, but then the ugly guy said something about a princess, so I think you missed the theme. ;)
Fazit: It would have been nice if you had some more polish in it, it just feels incomplete as a whole. Which is said, because I like Dungeon Crawlers. :)
