A merchant with all the money in the world seeks power and goes to death's dungeon.

Death takes this offer in exchange for the merchant's life, as he hands the merchant cursed coins.Using these coins and more, the merchant goes forth to get power.

The Merchant's First Quest is to take on the King Slime!

This game was a collaboration between Gamekrazzy and I. It was our first time working with someone else for ludum dare and we had a good time!Screenshot_6.pngScreenshot_1.pngScreenshot_2.pngScreenshot_3.pngScreenshot_4.pngScreenshot_5.png

Really great art! I think the controls felt really floaty, and it was really hard for me to move. I also ran into a weird bug where I found a room of immortal enemies that just constantly spat out coins.

Absolutely love the artwork! The main character is great. I agree that the controls are a little slippery, which made exploring a little tough. But great stuff!

Wasn't very clear what I was supposed to do, but the sprites have some nice movement and the character is nice and chunky. :)
