Cursed Flail

So it turns out that fancy new flail you picked up in this dungeon is mega cursed and now it's trying to kill you. Whoops.

Controls:

- Walk: Arrows

- Jump: Z / X / C

("any button" refers to any of these keys)

This was made in 48 hours for the 2021 GMTK Game Jam. The theme was "Joined Together," so I took inspiration from the trope of cursed weapons being impossible to unequip and ran with it to make a game about trying to dodge a hostile weapon that's tethered to you while tricking it into cooperating so you can progress.

This game was developed in PICO-8. All code, design, and assets are my own work.
