Moth's Backyard

Play as a little goblin alchemist named Moth and explore the various areas behind her house and collect ingredients to craft potions.

Controls

S, D to move 

Space or W to Jump

M to bring up the map or close it

note: this is mainly to quickly get back home or to reset if you get stuck.

Left Mouse Click to attack/dash and click buttons for crafting and shopping

note: attacking/dashing/dodging are the same motion and the hitbox for attacking is in front of you.

Right Mouse Click to use your potion ability

Scroll Wheel to select your potion. 

note: This scrolls the page too in the browser version. I had no idea that this would be a thing. I included downloads too for this reason.

Goal

There isn't really one. Just explore and collect ingredients to craft potions in your cauldron. There are some things I really feel I should've made a tutorial for but I didn't have the time. So maybe this will appeal to people that like to figure things out for themselves.

Description

This is my submission for Medroidvania Month 15 and I had about a month to make it. This game ended up being pretty much a demo because there isn't an end goal and what levels are there are short. I spent too much time implementing systems and making new environments and enemies when I should've actually been making the game. But I think that my game jam project should be condensed anyway.

But I had a story I wanted to tell dangit. Oh well.

I may want to develop this world more at some point after the jam. Way into the future. Eventually.
