Cursed Ruby
Follow Ruby on her quest to break free from Elias' curse!
UPDATE: There are no mouse controls. Select options in the main menu by using the arrow keys and the jump button
The windows version is what I recommend for the jam, but you can also play on the browser. Mac version is now here too. I can't test it at the moment so I am not sure if it works
NOTE: The spear ability only creates a platform if the spear travels a small distance. It may be difficult to leave the boss room where you find it due to that. Sorry about this. Should have made a better adjustment for it

Hey Jose, nice work. But I can't do air dash XD (Chrome browser on my Mac)
amazing art style. Great animations. This has lots of potential!
I realllly wish there was a map, and the combat feels pretty unfair because it’s impossible to dodge some things (before getting the dash). I think it’s mostly how fast some of the attacks are.
oh and with throwing spears for a platform, I think it should still stick even if your right next to a wall (currently it disappears and you have to back up)
The idea and story is interesting, although that thing with the spear projectile is a little annoying, and I find the save rooms too big, but I definitely see it being a decent game with a couple of improvements if you want to continue developing it
