Emerald Escapee

Only if you enter the old castle, evade its deadly traps and find all the missing keys, will you be able to touch the Emerald of Power and escape from the Volcanic Shores of Hell.

This is a short Top-Down Adventure Game created with the help of an amazing Programming Tutorial by Dylan Bennett (https://www.youtube.com/@DylanBennett) as well as some tricks and tweaks I borrowed from Nerdy Teachers' awesome Youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@NerdyTeachers).

The fact that light wall tiles are walkable threw me off. I suggest replace those the tiles with floor tiles.

@Bloodbane Yeah, it's supposed to create an isometric view, where your character's standing on the floor directly in front of a wall. I can understand how it'd look and feel a bit confusing.

Cheap death 1st try with spikes right behind the screen border.
Won 2nd time, after a bit of back and forth, until I realize that there was no hidden item to destroy static spikes or hidden key, you just had to walk along the wall...

A nice application of the tutorial, if a bit too literal. Spred your wings and add new things like :

  • moving monsters
  • pushable rocks (great for puzzle)
  • colored key to open correponding colored doors
  • stairs an floors (great for mazes)
  • teleporters...
