Instructions

A game where you must persevere to save the axolotl kingdom from their oppressive ruler. You thought you were just going to go to a lagoon with friends, but it turned out to be more than that. Fallen knights, evil kings, and somebody pulling the strings... You must go onward and fight your way through! But, will you escape? Or, in short: Move your way through the game, and beat the bosses to get to the king! Along with a companion... This game was made for the 2026 STEMMY's, with 4 people putting their all into the coding and art of this game. We all sincerely thank you for playing this game, and hope you enjoy it. This game was inspired by multiple games, such as Hollow Knight, Limbus Company, and others. Though it might not seem like a direct reference or any reference at all, we based some of the gameplay on those games, like the bosses and introduction chapter. -----Story of Making----- In the beginning, we didn't know the contest theme, but we wanted to at least try make the main idea or the concept of the game as early as possible so that we won't waste time trying to come up with an idea. We brainstormed in our coding club on a big whiteboard, eventually coming up with an adventure where you have to defeat bosses, along with the king, to save the kingdom. Excited, we got to work. However, procrastination got to us, and we delayed the game's making for a while. Then, we heard the contest theme, which was 'Change', or adapting to change. We got lucky, since our game was built on that. We assigned jobs as quickly as possible and tried to make the game. We bickered sometimes, such as spending more time on the coding than the art, which was right, but, (they shall not be named [ahem ahem]), didn't listen and spent 3 WHOLE MONTHS on the animation, which was only about 3-5 seconds long. We persevered and worked hard on this game, so please enjoy it! Controls: WAD for movement In the first fight, you click to punch the enemy. Press space to heal yourself. Press s to dash In the second fight, you press space to hit the king with your sword.

Sorry for the abrupt ending, but it was the best we could do in this timeframe :( there are way too many bugs to fix, so we apologize for that D: have funnn :D Oh, by the way, there're a few things that might have been taken from the Aztecs... / : Main Animator/ Coder : Main Scripter/ King Axolotl and Game Master : Main Scripter / Fallen Hero :Main Supporter/ Main Voice actor/ Helped with storyline From all of the people who worked on this- Thank you for playing!!
