FireBoy
A retro inspired action platformer where you have a projectile that can be called back to you to deal damage.
This was made for the Brackey's Game Jam 2020.2 under the theme "rewind". It's a loose interpretation of the theme but the mechanic that came from it ended up being interesting to work with. Hope you have fun with the game!
Controls:
- Arrow keys or WASD to move.
- Space bar to jump
- Hold left or right against a wall while airborne to start a wall slide. You can jump out of a wallslide to gain height
- Z to throw your fireball and press Z again while it's out to call it back to you. It'll deal more damage if you hit multiple enemies in one throw, and it'll heal you when it returns if its damaged something too.
-While your fireball is out on the screen, you'll move faster and can double jump to help line up your shots, or simply to help you with platforming.
- You can press ESC to quit a level and return back to the menu

Amazing game, had a lot of fun while playing it. Wall jump was a bit tricky. Also maybe the shoot key could have something other than Z
It's a pretty cool game. I enjoyed the mechanics after I fired the fire ball (though the placement of z could've been better.) A really enjoyable game and the sound fit perfectly.
Really nice game. Wall sprites are a bit to repetitive and UI could be better. Overall the game is amazing. The audio and SFX just fit together perfectly. Nice job.
Super cool sprites and animations!
Concept is solid and fits the theme well.
Music fits perfectly.
The long jump is tricky, I can't get past the second jump hehe :)
