A Small Dragon Kid Game
About
This is a small game about a small dragon kid that jumps around collecting gold and video game treasures.
This was my first PICO-8 project (and "finished", published game).
How to play:
You control a small dragon kid. You can jump on slimes, and bounce off slime balloons. You can jump up — or off — walls.
If a slime knocks you out, or if you land on spikes, you will lose 5 gold. Gold is worth 1, and video game treasures/large gold bricks are worth 10. Try to collect as much gold and treasure as you can!
Best played with a controller!

Though "complete", it isn't very long, and ends abruptly.
My intention was to just mess around with PICO-8, but after watching Krystman (Lazy Devs) talk about the importance of finishing your first game (in this video), I felt compelled to get it in a finished state and put it out, before moving on to start something new.
I hope you enjoy the game, and pardon the bugs, code, art, and lack of background music! x)
