Welcome great adventurers! As you know lately we had troubles with the crypt of the old Lich King! His tomb attracted nearby goblin tribes and they set up camp on the many levels. We ask you to go and clean it up, find their boss so we can rest assured once again. The Lich? Don’t worry he was defeated decades ago, only bones remained.
Now, gather you party and go onwards!

This game was made for the Pursuing Pixels James Jam Game Gam #3 with theme parallel. Some art (mainly my trees and grass) were taken from the first version: Druid Dash: Magic Mushroom Mania

There is a bug that sometimes comes up with spirits not moving, you will have to restart the stage with C x)

Move spirits around the map and guide them to their shrines. Once they move, they will continue to do so until they hit a wall.

Move with arrow keys left and right.
Shoot with X.

This game was made for the Minigame A Month April 2024 for theme Farming!
Gameplay:
Use your tools to manipulate the field, then harvest with as many points as you can.
⬅️⬇️⬆️➡️
❎: X
🅾️: C or Y/Z
When harvesting you move along in a straight line if you have the same veggies in that direction and stop before stepping on a different one.
Harvesting a veggie gives 1 point +1 for each previous same vegetable.
Combo and movement stops on a new vegetable in the direction, or upon turning into a new direction!
Tools
- Shovel: Let's you swap two rows or columns with each other.
- Pitchfork: moves row/colum left-right-up-down
- Bomb: Upon stepping on, it harvests all neighbouring tiles (replaces one where you move so it doesn't break cool lines)
- Watering can: Replaces a 3x3 area with a crop randomly selected from that area (weighted by occourance)
Seeds:
After completing a stage (or on pressing Enter) you can view the seed of the current page. Note that number down and share it with a friend. In the Load Field menu you can enter the seed and race on who can achieve more points on the same map, with the same tools!
Development:
You can read the devlogs and watch the full development VODS if you are intersted in things like that!

How to play:
Arrows to move, X to start. You can step twice, before most monsters stepping once. There are exceptions to this rule.

1k Defender
1k Defender is a little shmup made with 957 compressed bytes inside PICO-8!
This project was born from a failed submission to 1k jam 2022 and continuing it for the 2023 edition. Since I didn't felt it was eligible for the jam, I never uploaded it to it. A while ago I remembered it, so I spiced it up with a label and some sfx, but only those so it is a tad more enjoyable to play. We got a gameplay loop as well!
You can also check it out the raw one on GistHub:
https://gist.github.com/Achie72/076859ce7fe17335fdb49ca7790d427b
Gameplay:
Shoot the invading forces down to protect your planet. You need to restock on bullets from time to time in the depot (the up icon on the bottom left)

One Last Swing
This project is my entry for the Samurai Game Jam 2024 with subtheme: Luck! 🍀
Story:
Patrolling the border you get a message about enemy groups flooding your territory. Now it is up to you to make it back home and ensure the safety of your family!
Controls:
Use X to unsheathe your sword before the clash. If you do not have it out, you will automatically lose. Use ⬇️⬆️ to move your sword between the 3 stances of: High, Mid and Low.
The enemy will attack after a certain time has elapsed, just after they step back! Take that moment to adjust your stance to achieve victory!
Gameplay:
Beat 10 levels to make it back home, and if you feel like it, push your luck further into the endless challenge.
One Last Swing is a Rock-Paper-Scissor like dueling game, where you need to choose the correct stand to overcome your opponents, to regain your honor and to make it back home.
High stance beats middle, middle stance beats low and low stance beats high!
High > Mid > Low > High
