Failure Quest

Welcome to Failure Quest, adventurer!

You are at the final stage, just one step away from victory, but you realize that your enemies are too strong. So you have to "unlevel" to come back stronger!

How to play???

Press Escape to open the game menu (main menu + settings).

Use the arrow keys (or WASD) to move.

Walk on an enemy to kill them (if they walk on you, you will die though).

Touch the star to move to the next level.

There is also a level editor to create your own maps and share them with a code!

About this game

This game was made for the NSJS game jam in 48 hours (a little more thanks to the organizers). The theme was Failure & Overcoming. And we finished 5th... from the end of the list :')

We wanted to make a game  where you start from the last level, and even if you can theoretically win, you won't. So you will go down in levels, then come back stronger.

Our team is made up of  two French high school students who have never created or published a video game before. It was also the first time one of us used a game engine and programmed. So, this is our first video game ever, and we hope you like it!

Team composed of:

• ShyDr0x: programmer (who has written a lot of spaghetti code, even though he's not Italian)
• NSM: level designer (and first level music composer)
