Shy Gladiator


The shy gladiator has to defeat three mythical creatures, but he is too embarrassed to attack,
so instead he must dodge their attacks until the monsters lose all their powers.

You can move left or right with the arrow keys, and dodge with "Z". Dodge will give you
a few invincibility frames, but also take some hit points from you.

Can you defeat all three monsters?

Game by @caranha and @conanfelipe, using PICO-8

TODO


- Better title screen that actually explains the game;
- Better logic for the Cyclops, and telegraphing out attacks;
- Balance the damage amounts better;
