Augury Red Code

Augury Red is a short speed run based puzzle platformer based my Submission for Skittle's GB Studio Jam Special #2 Augury.

Story:

You play as a female android called C-1 as you platform your way out of ALS Tech Facility. Open locked doors and eliminate monster creatures known as BUGS to pave your path to the exit with the lowest time possible.

C-1's features [As stated in ALS Tech Infomercial]:

C-1 has a scythe as her primary weapon. She can attack with it when it is equipped and can be thrown to aid her as a platform. She cannot attack while the weapon is thrown, as she needs to recall and re-equip it first to do so.

There is a bug in C-1's system that poorly detects that the scythe has been thrown, but cannot be recalled. This can be prevented by her SYSTEM RESET function, allowing a function boot to read correctly.

C-1 is a very delicate android, please do not let her near acidic liquids nor spikes to avoid damage.

C-1 is a product of ALS Tech 2021

In order to experience C-1's full potential, ALS Tech has given her various upgrades in the for of LORE CARDS. Each sold separately.

Bugs and Glitches are inevitable with this revolutionary product. C-1 can eliminate them by attacking their source code and delete it from her system without a trace. Watch out for any signs of malfunction.

           

ALS Tech monitors all C-1 and her owner activities to ensure safety amongst normal citizens who do not have the capacity to acquire C-1 and is afraid of its potentials. We at ALS Tech ensures your safety.

How to Control C-1:

Function: Keyboard Keys: Game Boy Buttons:Move [Left/Right] A/D    or    Interact [Objects/Talk]W         or    JumpK/XAttack [Weapon is Equipped]J/Z Throw / Recall Weapon L/C SysReset [Reset Area] 

Developer's Notes:

• 
  The Collectibles LORE CARDS doesn't do anything besides decorations in this build, I will eventually figure out what to do with those.
• There's also nothing at the end besides the speed run time, how low is yours when collecting all the useless lore cards?
• More levels to come soon. [Help me make more intricate levels by donating, or do you want to collab on a level together? DM me for that!]
