Flee the Slaughter, Cannon Fodder!

◆ Ranked in the Top 100 of GMTK Game Jam 2023 with the theme "Roles Reversed" ◆

Overview

The Hero of Legend has arrived, and a swarm of warlike monsters (a.k.a. your buddies) is after their head! Only problem is... you're all weak. Like, REALLY weak. To make matters worse, you're the only one who seems to realize this. Since you stand no chance against the Hero, your best bet is to run for your life!

Gameplay

Mowing down your monster pals grants the Hero experience points to level up, allowing them to wield newer, more powerful abilities against you. Eventually, they'll even unlock upgrades for their existing abilities. As for you, the goal is simple: evade the Hero for as long as you can!

Tips & Tricks

• Pay attention to the Hero's attack indicator! The bubble that appears over the Hero's head reveals what attack they're going to use next, allowing you to plan your next move accordingly.
• Keep your distance from the Hero! Managing your space well makes it less likely for you to be caught off guard by one of the Hero's attacks, allowing you to survive for longer.
