Text 'em up is a text adventure mixed with a beat 'em up. Unfinished due to time issues but it has the basics implemented at least. You have to type to move using commands like "move" and "hit".

This was programmed in Rust and compiled to WASM to run in the browser. Tested on Firefox and Chrome, should work in most modern browsers though. No mobile support due to typing currently.

Wonderful game idea. You should make a post-jam version with more moves (I assume there is only one different attack right now?).

Also: +1 for programming this in Rust. It's not the easiest language to make game with.
