Consume beasts, get the power.
A game demo for Metroidvania Month XIV. Consume enemies in battle and use their abilities to navigate the platforming segments.
Platformer:
- Arrow keys for movement.
- Spacebar to jump (once acquired).
- Hold the Down arrow key for 2 seconds, then press spacebar to Spark Jump (once acquired).
- W key to save (at save points).
- E key to open menu.
Battle:
- Arrow keys or left mouse to select action.
- Enter key or left mouse to confirm.
- Capsules you can pick up in platformer areas increase health points.
- Keyboard is not connected to menus. For those, use the mouse.
- Skill Menus are somewhat working, but in this demo learning new skills won't do anything.
- In this demo, not every beast has an ability to get.

The following would have been nice in the demo, but I ran out of time:
- Don't allow same random enemy twice in a row.
- Show player HP outside of battle somewhere.
- Don't allow player to store multiple of a beast ability (e.g.: Can't absorb Jump twice)
- Doors that are locked to an ability (e.g.: Fire blue laser beam at blue doors to unlock them.)
- Keyboard support for menus
- Battle: After picking target, make enemy sprite not show hand/interactable icon when hovered with mouse
- Battle: Allow multiple enemies and target select in battle
- Battle: If player absorbs more than 4 abilities, force them to discard one.
