A game made in ONE MONTH for the YOMAJAM 2021 GAME JAM.
Re-experience the magical adventure of Frodo and his friends on this parody retelling of Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring in the style of the classic Super Mario Bros. and Zelda games with the funny humor of Serious Sam.
Beat up evil Orcs, Goblins, Ringwraiths and jump through countless spikes, falling bridges in the fantastical land of Middle-Earth in a retro aesthetic. Meet Sam, Gandalf, Aragorn and Legolas in byte-sized pixel forms while running away from Sauron's red dark lord eyes.

I like this game, but the difficulty is outrageous!
any way to get back up from a pit of spikes?
hey, the goal is to go left to right, that's just like reading the book! (in the original language)

No, you're dead XD
The intro sequence is great, the gameplay can feel kinda janky sometimes, getting companions throughout the journey is a neat touch, but my main problem with the game is that the jump doesn't function well in the falling bridges and that the lack of checkpoints makes it a very repetitive experience at the start, it does get better in the later levels, besides the bugged bridges I didn't find any other substantial bug
Casa-n0va responds:
Thanks for the feedback, friend! And you're right, i honestly didn't even think about checkpoints mainly because i thought the levels were kinda short... But yeah, dying once you're nearly finished with a level and going back to the start probably isn't the best experience.
