Mr. Nightshade

Submission for Gaming World Game Jam #2 (topic: DREAMS).
A very small top-down hack-n-slash where you go to the dream-world and fight nightmare creatures.

Controls:
WASD to move
E to interact
Q to swap weapons
(keys are supposed to be physical, so the actual keyboard layout doesn't matter)

Other notes:
There were big plans, but it is what it is...
Also in HTML version there is a large lag spike after you hit the first enemy...
I think it's because of the particle effect for blood splatter.

The MC looks pretty cool and I also like the weird horse. What is also kinda cute is the little jump the dude does when walking. I am unsure if you can survive the night if you can, it would probably help to have some sort of feedback that you made progress. Overall, I liked playing it.

Thanks! I just went by what first came to mind when thinking of a "modern hunter" for the design, and yes you can win the game if you kill all the jumping tentacle elk's ^^
