A downloadable game for Windows

Into The Woods

Made for the Blackthornprod Game Jam #3.

The theme was "Less is more" which was applied both to the art style and the gameplay. 

The point of the game is to collect hearts before yours run out but you need to be careful not to collect more than you need, otherwise the guards will attack you.  The less hearts you collect the easier the game is.

This was my first time participating in a game jam and also the first time making a platformer and i have to say, it was REALLY fun.

Game made using Unity.

Assets made using Procreate.

Music made using Garage Band.

great art

Really gorgeous art first of all! I liked the concept of collecting just enough (and not more) hearts while progressing. A little difficulty I had while playing was trying to jump to platforms beneath me, since they were right on the edge of the screen and you can't see them while jumping. Other than that, this is a good game!

Gave it a go, really liked the art for both the characters and the world, the music also fits quite well, the unique mechanic of collecting just the necessary hearts is also quite unique and fun (It took me a few tries to understand it because I am dumb) but overall really good experience.

The only thing is getting stuck on walls or platforms while jumping, but since it's your first platforming game is totally understandable (I think it can be solved by giving the player a round collider or giving the floor a material with no friction).

Keep the good work!

Astounding art! Loved it :)
