Miscellaneous

Created for the Boss Rush Jam 2024 with the theme "Exchange". In this game, you convert enemy attacks into health & power with the Perfect Block system. I had around 2 weeks allotted for creating the game as I entered late into the jam, but hopefully you'll find this a satisfying experience. Thanks for checking it out!

Inspired by the visuals and gameplay of games like:

  • Final Fantasy 16
  • Vanquish
  • Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty
  • Exoprimal

NEW! Updated to post-jam version 0.2 with bug fixes and improvements.
