Plague Princess

UPDATE (9/14/2023): Just a quick update, I had forgot to mention there is a boss fight in the game. If you enter Daliah's dungeon and press the "B" key, you will be sent to a boss fight. (Didn't have time to properly design the level and balance the gameplay, but updates will be coming out after the voting period!)

Theme:

"This entire city must be purged!" - Arthas Menethil, Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos

Description:

Play as Plaguette, the Plague Princess, a magical girl with the ability to help cure any bad feelings plaguing you!

Go through the city and purge all of the citizens that are being affected by this miasma of misery.

Use her Caduceus staff to shoot heart-shaped magic bullets to fend off enemies.

Or throw magic potions that will have knockback effects on the characters or enemies. (And even the player!)

Developer Comments:

I got way too ambitious with this game. I had ideas to give each level it's own unique tileset, different NPC interactions, puzzles, multiple boss fights, etc.

Next time, I'm just working on a tutorial level first and building from there instead of trying to add in all the ideas that I have floating around in my head. XD

But I had a lot of fun making designs about one the themes ("The city must be purged...") and thought it would be funny to have a juxtaposition between Magical Girls and Plague Doctors.

I definitely want to go back and polish it up, show you the full vision that is in my head. :D

For now, this is a prototype for a future game.
