ShiftQuest

ShiftQuest is my entry for the 3rd GameShell Game Jam.

Description:

ShiftQuest is a puzzle game in which you shift around tiles with paths on them to lead your character to the goal. On your way you encounter enemies (which you either avoid or fight if you have found a weapon), treasure chests, and other elements that make every level a unique challenge.

How to Play:

When entering a level, you can move the cursor with the D-Pad and shift tiles that are in the same row or column as the cursor by pressing either A (shift down), B (shift right), X (shift left) or Y (shift down). When you have created a path to the goal, you can press START to send your character in his way. Once he starts running, you can only watch how the events unfold (unless there's a crossroad, in which case you can choose a direction). If the character reaches the goal, the level is finished. If not, you can try again.
