The sword chooses the hero.

It sure didn't pick you.

You wanted to be the hero, but instead you got the janitorial position right under him. But, hey, it's better than nothing, right?

Play as Douggie, goblin janitor, and clean up the messes that the hero makes.


Controls: WASD + J + K (or space)

This game was made in one week for Bored Pixels Jam 8. The team is made up of three brothers.




Built with Godot.

The plugin Dialogic created by coppolaemilio was used for the dialogue in the game. It is phenomenal, I cannot praise it enough!




Content Warning: lots of cartoonish blood and also some sadness

Cute and interesting adventure, with some fun challenges along the way. Interesting concept game play wise, I like the way it inverts some standard RPG tropes. Keep up the great work!

Very cool!  Excellent spritework, seems like good codin', and I'm jealous the dialog looks this good!  Great work, y'all!

Interesting concept not only for story but also for gameplay.

I'm glad that jumping can be done by space, not only by k. It made controls more comfortable at least for me.

Some levels look like insanely hard at first but they are actually okay after realizing what to do.

It's an interesting adventure.

Pretty Goog

Goog indeed
