A Single Player Co-Op Game – Sacrifices must be made to free the Dark Lord! Take control over a demon and his servant and help them to fulfill their quest of mass destruction.
Feed the demon by sacrificing animals with the priest. Powered with blood he will guard off the revengeful spirits that attack the priest from the shadow realm. Can you take control of two evil beings in two different realms, at the same time? And even more important – Can you collect enough blood to open the gates of H E L L?

Controls – Press WASD to move the priest. Press SPACE to pick up friendy animals, or kill enemy priests. Use your Cursor to move the Demon. Press the left mouse Button to attack. When you find a rare animal you gain a special attack that you can use with the right mouse button. ESC opens the menu to change graphics/sound settings.


Jam Log – Although we are happy how the game turned out there are still some parts missing! In the end, we had to simplify the goal of the game. There should have been 5 artifacts to collect to win the game, but unfortunately, we have to stick with an enemy count mechanic to end the game for know. So all you need to collect so far is the blood for the ring in the center of the map. Also, we would have liked to have a couple more hours to tweak the spawns and mechanics of the enemies, to make a more satisfying difficulty curve in the game. And then there are some UI ideas (options etc) we couldn't finish on time.

I love the idea of singleplayer coop-game! I can easily see it as a main mechanic in fleshed out, properly released game - in fact, I'd love to! It works really well, as do the other gameplay mechanics :) Graphics are reaaaally cool and sound design too. My only nitpick is the ridiculous "Dinner is ready!" that kind of hurt the mood a little to me.

All in all a great entry! Thanks for creating it!

You seem to have a penchant for weird, dark stuff.

I wanted to play this game, but I couldn't find the download link in the itch.io page. What am I missing?

@jynspielt thank you for fixing the download.

Awesome game! I really liked the visuals - and especially the options menu which was exceptionally awesome!

The game itself was really fun and kind of broke my brain with the dual display of the demon and the priest. I didn't manage to kill any of the enemy priests, but I decided to complete the pentagram and finish the game without killing them (are you supposed to attack the yellow circles with the demon? I tried doing it a few times but couldn't get it to work).

Anyway, really awesome game mechanic, and cool game!

Nice! I really love this art style, details on sound slider, characters design. Controls feel solid, but I found myself straggling to find where cultist was in demon world and vice versa, may be an arrow, showing direction to cultist or at least to pentagram would help.

Really cool idea with the single player coop type thing. I like the art of all the characters. The gameplay, while fun at first, wasn't super varied and didn't get that challenging. However, the game is very polished and expertly put together. Nice work!

I like the idea, execution, mood... In fact, I like it all except that it is very slow. Also a minimap (or two?) could be nice.

A very solid entry! enjoyed it quite a bit! (I felt the hitboxes of the demon was a little wanky at times but in general a very cool game)

It totally boggled my brain - in a good way. So much potential to realise in this game and I hope you do take it forward. Great work.
