I am the Protagonist!!!

Submission for GMTK Jam 2021 based on the theme Joined Together.

Our game is a competitive, side scroller where both players control the "same" character, who got bugged and duplicated. Clone against original now the two of them fight for the protagonism in the game.

Being the same character, they have their Lives joined together, sharing not only Life Bar, but their Dash Counter and entire HUD.

The goal of the game is to collect 5 coins first, that's the only way to become the protagonist.

CONTROLS

Player 1

WASD - Movement/Jump

Left Shift - Dash

Left Ctrl - Shoot

Player 2

Arrows - Movement/Jump

Right Shift - Dash

Right Ctrl - Shoot

NOTE FROM THE DEVS

Since this project was rushed because of the time limit, it was left as good as incomplete. Taking every feedback from the community we plan on returning for this little game to give it a good twist: implementing new mechanics of movement (like Towerfall Ascension), some nice VFX to juice up everything, the whole sound design we sadly had to left behind, a whole bunch of levels, in game narrative to explore the battle between protagonists and of course a proper AI for those who want to experience the game by themselves. That said we're scheduling to return to this project in around a month, until then you can follow us on our social medias, where we'll be posting our other works!

We really want to give you the best and fullest experience we can, so Follow here on Itch.io and stay tunned so you wont miss any update!!!
