The Story
The God of Death was murdered by the God of Life. The whole world is stuck in a loop between life and death and nobody can die anymore. Now it is up to you, an eternal warrior and an ascendant of death, to claim what's rightfully yours. Break the endless loop of death and rebirth and defeat the other claimants, even if you have to start at the same point again and again!
How to Play
Attack by clicking (and holding) the left mouse button. Hold the mouse button down and move your mouse to define the path of your sword. Drawing loops with your sword will deal extra damage and you can hit more enemies at once. However, holding the mouse down will drain stamina (the green bar).
Cast a fireball by pressing the right mouse button. This will cost you mana (the blue bar). Mana can be refilled by collecting blue flasks or by reentering the loop of live and death by dying.
The Development
We are a small team of two developers, a sound engineer and a voice actor. All assets (voice acting, music, sounds, graphics) were created during the jam. We used Unity as engine, Paint.net and PhotoLine for graphics, Ableton Live for sound and music and two boxes of beer for extra power.
