A game where you play the Minotaur. Make your way through the level by utilizing the enemy corpses and defeat the boss at the end.

First ludum dare and first ever complete game, unfortunately i feel there is a quality drop towards the end of the game where i was running out of time and panicking :P hopefully there aren't too many bugs and enjoy!

Instructions are in game but just in case -

AD - Move

SPACE - Jump

Shift - Ram

E - Pick up/drop

R - Eat

LMB - Attack

If you have any questions or want to report any bugs contact me on my twitter @futomart.

EDIT:

I've found a pretty big bug in the game where if you die while holding a body the game crashes, so keep that in mind while playing and try to avoid dying while holding a body D:

Pretty nice game.

I had trouble figuring out exactly how to hold my hands to do everything the game required, though :P

I don´t have time now to learn how to beat the boss, but... I´ll be back! Great mechanics and gameplay. Great job!

Really nice! Cool mechanics with the bodies. Wish there was more strategy with combat, maybe with ramming coming into play but still really fun! Graphics and audio were great as well

fun mechanics with the dead bodies. Although kind of hard to figure out.
Very cool work :)

Fun game, I liked the use of corpses and the breaking terrain. It was nice to look at too, the lighting and spritework worked well. The boss battle felt a little unfinished but that's not surprising given the time limit, I wound up just running into him and slashing as fast as I could.

Sweet graphics, sweet music and awesome mood. You really got the controls and the gameplay right, and gave the "gaining health by eating" as a nice twist! Felt a tad short and with only one boss! The game was awesome and I want more! :)

Really fun game. The control bindings were a little awkward, but once I got the hang of it, it was really enjoyable.

Great game, keep working on it! I feel like the controls could be adjusted or adding a keymap screen would be nice.

Fun little game. Perfect difficulty. Animations and sounds were very nice. Combat could have been a bit more robust, but it still felt rewarding. Bouncy dead bodies was a nice touch.

Really cool game. Love the bounce of the bodies XD. Fighting could have been better but I know what it is like on such a short time frame. Well done man!

Nice twist to the basic platforming.
