Pigheaded Pirate is a sidescrolling beat-em-up with a twist: your weapon is your _partner_. Sacrifice them to complete three progressively harder levels for treasure and an important lesson about life, money, and love.
Even though it's a browser based game, you can still use a gamepad. :) The game should take about 15 minutes to get to the end cutscene. My best score is 559.2s, 36 deaths, 39 sacrifices. What's yours?
(Note, this game plays best in Chrome and Firefox. Safari won't play the sound effects)
Built in 48 hours for Ludum Dare 43’s compo theme: Sacrifices must be made.

I published a postmortem of Pigheaded Pirate!
edit: fixed a physics bug (by simply deleting two lines of code!) and a particularly sticky area of the map
