SUMMARY: In a world where each day passes in 10 seconds, our humble Knight has to choose which quests to seek in order to fulfill his life! He can focus on pretty sarcastic stories, go to the woods and cemeteries to kill several minions and some mini bosses! Weapon and Armor upgrades shall assist him on his quests.
INTRO: Everyone has a dream. Our not so noble hero is not different. Born as a warrior, his main objective is to prove himself capable of defeating the dragon which was his bully on school, long ago. Unfortunately, nothing is so easy and for our hero to complete his reason of life, he will have to put his skills into test in an incredible quest! But in a world so fast as ours, will he manage to achieve a good life and yet fulfil his lifetime dream? Life'Short
HINTS: Although the theme is 10 Seconds, that is only the duration of a day in our game. The rhythm of the game itself is not frenetic and, hence, it can be pretty easy to die. However, the idea is to play more than once in order to learn monster's stops and some techniques in order to survive and kill the mini bosses. For instance, to survive more, you can improve your armor in the equipment shop. You can also improve your weapon there -- without doing so, killing the semi bosses would almost not be humanly feasible. hahaha :)
EDIT: Due to many people informing us it was unbeatable, we made the player start with the armor at level 1. You will lose that armor with one hit, and die with the following hit. However, you can still upgrade your armor again in the equipment shop (and even upgrade further than +1 :P). Note: An armor can only be repaired while it's not broken yet.
CONTROLS: You can control the character with two layouts -- they work simultaneously, so, simply choose what suits best. <A/left> goes left, <D/right> goes right, <W/up> ascends stair, <S/down> descends stair, <J/Z> attacks and interacts with NPCs, and <K/X> jumps, <1><2><3><4> choose options during dialogs with NPCS.
TEAM: members and collaborators of the small group Anest Studio.
