Navigate a world full of doors, monsters, and amulets to reach your ultimate goal of... well... who knows? Navigate the increasingly difficult levels to reach the end.
I hope to work on this game more in the future to add more mechanics I just didn't have time for as well as a level editor. I'll keep you guys posted!
Your hero can switch between 3 sizes - small, regular, and large Small hero can fit through small door, regular hero can fit through regular door, etc.
Use blue and red amulets to grow and shrink
Defeat frightening monsters (or lose if they're bigger than you)
Don't die.
NOTE: A game like this requires very clever level design, something that is hard to do in 48 hours. I apologize in advance.

This was really cool! I hope you continue this afterwards. The puzzles were challenging enough to be interesting without being too hard. Job well done!
To those who were wondering about blank screens/not being able to run the .jar: To run the JAR you need to have Java 8 installed. Once you have it installed from Oracle Software you can double click the file for it to run. IF YOU ARE GETTING A BLANK SCREEN: Make sure you have kept all the folders bundled together. Extract everything from the zip (including the "res" directory). If "res" is not included, the game will not run. I hope this clears up any issues you guys have had.
Interesting mechanics, but a bit un-intuitive? What is exactly the difference between amulets and monsters? It looks like they work the same. Also the tutorial text is very hard to read - I almost missed it the firt time I played.

The music was pretty spooky.
This game is too hard!
