Taile Gamougg: Ligma (retro [arcade] spinoff)

John_Shrekinson · February 18, 2022, 12:21am

Taile Gamougg: Ligma is a retro (arcade) game featuring grid-based movement, navigation puzzles, and bizarre, partially non-violent combat.

This potentially epic game also marks the first time John Shrekinson (me) has EVER made movement animations for the player (excluding examples with default sprites).

It features:

Boss battle(s)
3 hidden easter eggs!
New game mechanics
Tutorial
Forge (make your own custom levels!)
Player movement animations

It wont take me to the next level :(

What do you mean? Oh yeah, you have to use the Interactor Rifle to interact with things (hence the name). I got the idea for this gun after realizing that the grid-based movement example won’t let the player touch the next-level blocks. Also you kinda have to exploit the dash mechanics to beat level 2.
