Goatman



LD 43 was my first LD and I created this metroidvania-type game called Goatman. You are an explorer in a cave trying to sacrafice goats (Game lore was not a focus).

Find and sacrafice all 5 goats! In order to sacrifice them you need to bring each of them to the center of the map near the underground altar. Each goat sacrificed will give you an additional power-up. It's pretty difficult, and I realized this after the compo ended unfortunately.

Goat 1: Gain a double jump.

Goat 2: Gain more health.

Goat 3: Gain a more powerful projectile.

Goat 4: Gain the ability to walk through lava without taking damage.

Goat 5: You win (In the spirit of the theme I had to sacrifice implementing winning)
