Spriggans Curse

Controls: Arrows keys + Z/X

A Game Boy styled side-scrolling squad shooter. Made for GBJAM 10. Take on the role of a hero and lead a squad of soldiers to defeat an evil that has poisoned the land! The theme of the jam was Plant/Plants and we implemented this in a pretty straightforward way in that your enemies are plants.

I used this neat palette from polyphrog: https://lospec.com/palette-list/laser-lab. As I wanted minimal colors but have a completely different color for highlights and this worked out rather well for things like petals and gems.
