A downloadable game

So this is basically just me testing my engine as well as my tools for sprite drawing and map making. I hope to eventually make this into an actual game. As for the game itself, you can swing your sword with B, in the map with the forest area you can go to the top left corner and you'll be transported to a cematary looking area. You can return to the forest area by going all the way to the right edge and then around the middle part of that.

December 15, 2021: Added a rudimentary collision system so you can now strike the werewolves and they disappear. Also a level transfer system. Hopefully next update will have some AI going on and the enemies can attack the character. As well as improved pixel works.

April 7, 2022: Added a new enemy and working towards a basic combat system.  I want to nail down a little more complex combat system and I will be working towards that for the next couple of months.

May 9, 2023: Wow quite a long time from my last update. I did quite a bit of redrawing for the character and the werewolf. Also was finally able to add height to the level and jumping. Didn't want to release this till I felt the jump controls were just right. This is just a test level to check the jumping mechanics. You can also jump on the enemies but you have to get to higher ground first then jump on them from there since the jump itself isn't that high. I'm hoping this adds a bit more depth to the overall level design when I actually start on it. Probably need to update my level maker and my engine to handle sprite masking. And hopefully make a decent NPC routine for the enemies next. Got my work cut out for me it seems.
