Ludum Dare 43: Sacrifices Must be Made
In keeping with my "abuse of the theme" motif, I present *NES Quest*, because
programming for the NES is like sacrificing your sanity.
This is not a complete game: my ambition exceeded my preparedness and the
available time, but this is a playable demo.
*NES Quest* Playable Demo
Quest through the land, searching out and collecting the components to repair
your NES: Find the 6502 CPU, the PPU, the RAM chip and the 7404 Inverter.
Watch out for Spiders, Grumps and Skulls. Grab a sword to defend yourself.
NES Quest draws a lot of inspration from *The Legend of Zelda* and *Gauntlet*.
Unfinished Work
As an unfished game, the RAM and 7404 Inverter are not present in the game.
There is no win condition, nor goals. The player doesn't have a health system.
The movement and combat system need some fine tuning to feel more playable.
