[Ver 8.3] Welcome to The Gauntlet, a fun, challenging heavily Cuphead-inspired shooter! The game may take a while to load on low-end computers! Sorry, the game's massive [RECCOMENDED TO HAVE A MOUSE] =-= controls =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= - [A] & [D] to move, [SPACE] or [W] to jump - [Click] to shoot, hold to keep firing. Put your mouse left and right of your avatar to aim in those directions, the same with shooting upwards - Press [S] to crouch and double tap [S] to get down thin platforms - [Q] to swap to your primary and secondary shots - [R] to use an EX ability, which uses 1 card from your deck on the bottom. Build up cards by doing damage. Each shot has a unique EX! - [E] and [Q] to equip shop weapons to your primary and secondary respectively. Click on stuff to buy it =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= =-= saves =-= Saving is pretty simple, press the Save icon on the top left (in the main menu or on a death card) and save that code somewhere! You can put this code into the Load icon on any new webpage to load your progress. If your save gets outdated (which it might as the game gets updated) try adding characters (doesn't matter which) to your code until the char count reaches 16, as this is how the game's saves work. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
[Website] Highly Recommended to play on Gauntlet's new official itch page as that's where updates will be coming from now on; jgreyk.itch.io/gauntlet 2D platformer enginge I stole some of the code from @bestvitalic2, go check him out it's a really smooth engine that works great with this Used some sounds and effects from @PizzaGut including their own version of the smoke puff cloud effect, go check their game, it's a lot more polished - Credit for music is by Cuphead obviously, aside from the shop & main theme being from Mario & Kirby respectively - Credit to @30trashkid for a buncha stuff in the game in general, from the logo to ideas and such - Credit to for the Scratch cat's walking animation (adjusted a little) - Credit to as I reused a few particles to create this (they also made a Cuphead game, go check it out) - Credit to for making a really sweet text engine!
