When On High
About
When On High is about Marduk the Storm God from Babylonion mythology, tasked with defeating the 12 demons of Chaos, led by Tiamat's champion, Quengu.
The game is an action-platformer and is pretty jank! It is currently unfinished (I don't think you can actually fight the boss), but you can play through much of the level. I also recommend you use a gamepad/controller, as I didn't have a chance to test the keyboard/mouse controls very much:
Move: WASD/Left Stick
Jump: Space/South Button
Dash: F + Cursor/East Button + Right Stick
Light Attack: LMB/West Button
Heavy Attack: RMB/North Button
HoldWall: LShift/Right Trigger
PS: You should only need to download the zip file!
My partner and I wanted to challenge ourselves by participating in the Historically Accurate Game Jam this year, and this is the result. I've only been coding for about a year, and this is my first jam programming. We're hoping to finish the game once the jam voting is over so that you can at least play through it. We'll be adding music and sound then as well.
