You are one of the damned souls who have been sent to Castle Moldark to spend the rest of your life among other exiled ones. Legends say the castle is ruled by the most evil of souls - a mighty marble, a greedy ghost and an evil eye *(watch out, it's truly evil!)*. Defeating them all will grant your soul pardon and allow you to live a happy life once again.
The game is a 2D platformer in which your life total - souls - can be traded for at a merchant. The merchant will trade you other souls which grant you special powers. Until you lose them, that is, by taking damage from evil creatures in the castle.
Use Arrow keys to move
Use X to attack
Use Space to interact (doors & merchant)
> In the merchant GUI, use the mouse to get souls from the merchant (bottom) in exchange for yours (top). You can also use the top screen in the merchant GUI to reorder your souls. The order is important, as the souls get damaged from right to left.

Special thanks to Sebastian Lague for his great 2D character controller which we modified and used for this game. We couldn't have done it in time without it.
