Play!

Controls are:
- 'WASD' for horizontal and vertical axies
- 'Space' to jump
- 'Q' to swap items
- 'E' to use your equipped item

Sorry, no rebinding or gamepad support. Didn't have time.

Imagine a cheesy TV ad:

You're the mayor of a town with a major "boss" problem. Who can you turn to to clear yout this boss? What if you don't have enough money for them? Gee, is there anyone who will deal with this problem on the cheap?

Yes! Meet: "Budget Hero Corp"! You need a hero fast! We've got you covered. For only a small $1000 deposit, we'll send an adventurer over right away to clear your dungeon, fight your dragon, or rescue the prince. Whatever you need!

You'll only incur small costs related to side quests, experience, and/or dismemberment. It's all in our very simple* contract. (*Contract is not simple).

Not being able to control your character while he is in the air is a bit annoying. I would've liked at least some small amount of control as the teleportation was a bit glitchy. Also the graphics are extremely basic. I liked the wall slide mechanic though. Well done for submitting.

Loved the concept of dying over and over to upgrade the character! I think it's personaly really original and that it has a lot of potential. Didn't like graphics and music (you should probably make it loop throughout the game because it went silent after a minute or so)

Also I suggest making the player also jump with W

Pretty tough to control. Was fun messing around with the teleport gun though.
(Although it seems you can teleport from the beginning even without collecting the gun.)
