Lucent (MVM 16)

A short Metroidvania made for the Metroidvania Month 16 gamejam. Explore a village cursed with eternal darkness in your quest to restore the sun to its former glory.

CONTROLS:

Dodge - Shift (Keyboard) / B (Gamepad), provides iFrames

Jump - Space (Keyboard ) / A (Gamepad)

Attack - F (Keyboard) / X (Gamepad)

PROD v1.035 Notes:

- Added VFX and SFX to player dash ability

PROD v1.034 Notes:

- Added death VFX to enemies and player (although she fades back to a checkpoint before they really play out)

- Removed wall slide as well as wall jump bug (wall slide and wall jump still accessible in All Abilities Mode)

- Added iFrames to ledge climbing but also increased the range of the Brute's sword swing so you can no longer just walk past him.

- The attack power-up now works!

Known Issues:

- Pause Menu is still being weird and Esc will not let you leave it, best to use the Close Menu button

- Sometimes the player will randomly teleport to a different room. I cannot reliably reproduce this bug and have no idea what causes it, let alone how to fix it.

PROD v1.033 Notes:

- Modified opening text and added SFX to opening doors

ISSUES: Menus are being weird, it's best to use your mouse to navigate them.

PROD v1.03 Notes:

- Possible crash(?) if the player takes damage while swinging their weapon. This may be resolved, more testing required.

- Jittery room transitions.

- Wall jumping, while not currently meant to be in, is still possible.

- Wonky minor enemy AI.

- SFX may be too loud
