IMPORTANT MESSAGE !!!
The game is actually being uploaded. I have a shitty connection so it'll take a little time. I created this entry before the upload because the upload progress bar say that it'll last 2 hours and half and the jam ends before that.
Sorry for the inconvenience. I'll upload the real version as soon as possible but right now, i'm exhausted.
Introduction
Each night, knights and heroes try to defeat dark overlord in order to maintain order and peace in the kingdom. But also for glory and treasures.
You are fed up with all those lies... You are The Poet. An feared ghost of the past who point out the truth by the power of his words. But the king want your head. He cannot let you talk anymore...
Use your words as your finest weapon !
Gameplay
Each game is composed of two phase : the Day and the Night.
During the Day, except the first one, you can learn a verb, a new ability or the name of a interactive object.
During the Night, you'll face knights who are here to claim your head. Press Space in order to open your book and start writing with your keyboard. Use the verbs you know (like push, pull or fall) with a subjects and the action you just wrote will realise itself. Use interactive objects in your throneroom and defeat each wave but, be careful, only one blow will be enough to kill you.
