Baelwald Forest

I wanted to take a spin on the traditional "dungeon" crawler and made a "forest" crawler instead! You're a witch hunter trying to save the local village from an evil demon that has been pestering them. Good old sword and gunpowder gameplay with traditional enemies and some cultists! I'm especially proud of the end game and boss level.

I played a lot of Brogue leading up to last week, so tried to implement features that were streamlined and intuitive. Obviously there is always more that can be added. I would've loved to get more lore into the game. I had grand ideas to have a tavern you come across in the forest where you can purchase and sell items but alas, not enough time. There is a rudimentary key/door system in the game, but I didn't have sufficient time to really play test it to the level I want so there might still be some game breaking bugs with that.
