Use the king's magic knife to get combos and scale up its size! But be careful, your weapon also destroys the very coins you need to increase your score!

Enemies:

  • Pawn: Swarms and moves slowly towards you (1 health)
  • Rook: Moves towards you (10 health)
  • Knight: Moves towards your mouse (3 health)

Controls:

  • Move MOUSE to move the King
  • LEFT CLICK to swing knife
    • If your swing hits multiple enemies, you'll start a COMBO. You will swing again automatically with a bigger sword! This will continue for each swing that reaches a new enemy

Known issues:

  • no audio (cut for time)
  • Dying doesn't let you move even after resetting (cut for time)
  • Lag spikes (web browser only)

This is my first ever game jam entry (and of course it ended up to be during my busiest weekend in ages lol)! I added a ton of juice to this game
