This is a short, mostly complete beat(?)-em-up. It's all standards-compliant HTML5, but I think the current version will only work in CHROME, and you may need a FAST COMPUTER. FireFox seems OK now, but slower.
Use the arrow keys to move around, space to jump, z and x to operate your limbs. [TAB] skips dialog, but then the game will be VERY short. :)
I have been making games in Flash for a long time and I decided to give HTML5 a shot since Flash is doomed. That means I started from an empty file and spent a lot of time learning / struggling with basics. (Including like writing my own MIDI player, etc.) I'm pretty happy with what's possible in the browser today, at least for pixel games, if you're using the newest Chrome. Not sure how I feel about the compatibility and performance issues, yet.
Anyway, this game is transparently inspired by River City Ransom. There's a long list of things I wish I had time to improve, but so is the nature of Ludum Dare!
Jam version adds a few little extras (including a secret) and some polish. Rate the Compo version, of course, which is complete enough to be fun, I hope. :)
