Take on the role of a young man looking to stay fit and young, who just happens to visit the wrong gym, run by a demon, eager to feed off the suffering of his trainees or their ageing bodies.
Press Start to begin your workout. Follow the button prompts on screen to try and complete the exercise. Press the buttons on your keyboard that correspond to what you see on screen. Be warned, if you make a mistake the demon will allow the gym to take its toll on you, ageing you terribly.
It's a little sparse, there are no difficulty levels. If I were to continue this project I would consider having the demon react pained when you do well (de-aging yourself slightly) and perhaps make facial expressions for the workouts. Originally I had planned on making a body that reacted the correct stimulus but it didn't happen. The head indicates enough information though.
I was aiming for a sort of rhythm style game.
Have noticed sometimes the prompts go out of sync. Not sure why, didn't have time to fix.
Game can sometimes generate very hard prompts or very long prompts, sorry about this, I didn't get a chance to properly balance it.
If you stick to the end of the tutorial you can set one of the exercises to easy mode. As I personally found the full version of the exercise too hard to do most of the time.
Downloads are provided through a single itch.io link.
Mac and Linux versions are untested.!
