Fullscreen recommended (Press F)


Cherp returns this Halloween with the 3rd micro installment of the SOCK series!


The search for the second sock brings Cherp to a mysterious lair, starting with a twisted garden, what brain squashing dangers await?

--

This is a short demo (10-20 minutes?) to keep on with pixel art practice and test platformer mechanics, highly inspired by classic Castlevania and Ghouls and Ghosts from the old NES/SNES, watch those enemy patterns and strike!


Controls - Arrow keys or WASD

Z or J Jump

X or K - Attack

C or L : Shoot (blast of force which is charged when you hit enemies with your sword, when shooting, pressing UP/DOWN can aim your bullet)


This game also support GAMEPADS provided they have a D-pad of sorts.


And that's it, let me know how it goes and Happy Halloween!!1

very cool

this game feels like if someone dreamed about an early-90s NES game and tried to recreate it

Hmmm so are the controls Z X C a sega genesis reference
(im high btw)

I noticed there is a bit of a softlock in the tutorial when I dashed I got stuck and can no longer move since the dash stopped a bit too early

this is by far the game i have ever played.
