This was a first attempt to make a game using pico-8. What a great education tool and fun thing to play with.

I worked on this game with my kids who provided ideas, story, methodologies, goals, graphics, and sound. Needed another day or two to add everything we intended.

It is currently playable... but not with the level of depth we had hoped. The kids made all sorts of graphics for bears, bats, pond monsters, wolf kings, evil turkeys, etc.

Complete three summons to win.

To do...
- Improve play balance.
- Improve encounters.
- Making the summons harder/as intended by making you get the things you need.
- And adding the enemies to attack you also.
- Improved AI for enemies and goats.
- Visiting villages/castles.
- Add 2nd player to help fight in encounters.

We have low expectations but had a lot of fun.
Tools: PICO-8

I can see the idea here but it's hard to win in this game if I keep getting attacked by wolves without any chance to recover. I won once because I choose easy tasks but if I had chosen harder tasks, I'm guaranteed to fail.
