Backstory

In Void Scion, you play as a blood sorcerer, trying to deliver a gift to the dark god who has granted you your powers. Each attack you do costs you greatly, however, draining the very force that sustains you. The only way to recover is by absorbing it from others. You also collect XP from these deaths, which is used to increase the power of your spells. Power is bought from the stoic gargoyle, a long since forgotten shrine that has no life for you to take. From the small army of knights and archers to the noble paladin, the universe seems to be against the path to your god. Only you have what they need, and it must be delivered quickly.!

Details

We loved the health bar prompt so much we incorporated it anyway! The game takes between 5 to 25 minutes to complete, depending how ready you are for the final boss. Note that once you enter, you cannot turn back.

This was our first game jam, and it was a lot! Thanks to the whole team - we would encourage you to read the credits! Everyone did an amazing job. Go Team FREINDSHIP!

Please let me know if the Linux binary doesn't work.
