Submission to the 12th Gameboy Jam.

Blood of Ooze

By Lights Blue

You play as a vampire that is trying to reach shelter after flying too high before sunrise. Try to survive off the blood of various slimes as to avoid disintegrating from the intensifying sunlight as morning approaches.

Controls: Arrow keys and Z and X are intended for usage (WASD is also usable, alongside controllers), with Z binding to B and X binding to A. Controlling the player is explained through in-game tutorials.

This is a somewhat fast-paced platformer based in a screen-looping arena, with draining health and life steal, to encourage you to play risky and fast.

This is a gameboy styled game for the GB Jam #12 (GBJAM 12 - itch.io), where everything had to be made in the 10 day length.

All assets were made during the jam's period, excluding the 3x4 font used.

Tools Used: Godot, Aseprite, Furnace (tracker), Audacity (wav to ogg) BitFontMaker2.

enjoy!

I've seen some requests for a manual so, here it is

All tutorials, copy and pasted from the pop ups in case you skip or forget them:

Level 1:

^ To Jump, A/X To Attack. Press B/Z to start. Defeat all the slimes

Hold ^ and press A/X to Double jump. This can be used to Deal Damage.

Play fast, as the sunlight causes you to lose hp over time.

Level 2:

The screen loops horizontally and vertically.

You can swoop into bat mode using B/Z. This can be an attack.

You can use A/X to attack, which will exit bat mode.

Level 3:

Press A/X while holding v to do a Slam Attack.

Slide along a ceiling by touching it in bat mode. This can protect you from the sun.

Jump against a wall to wall jump.

Press A/X and B/Z at the same time after beating wave 3 of a level to continue.
