Stab, dash and charge attack your way through all three levels of this fast-paced fantasy beat’em up, and show the Dark Lord who’s boss!

Controls:
Arrow keys – for moving around, Z – for stabbing things and menus, X – for blocking things that try to stab you, hold Z – for a super-charged attack, double tap direction – for dashing to safety
You can also use C+V in place of Z+X if you have a keyboard layout that makes that more convenient.
Gamepads also supported! (provided they work in your browser)

This game was created for the PICO-8, a virtual console with 32kb cartridges, 16-color display and 8-bit beep and boop audio - and this is the absolute most I managed to squeeze out of that :).

If controls stop responding, just click the game window :).

I give you three stars because it was a good game with great potential which was unfortunately never realised.

Problems:
Quite repetitive and boring gameplay
Quite repetitive enemies and not much strategic playing needed to beat them

This was great! Has so much potential to become a little tiny dark souls-esque, really good!
