We made it for Ludum Dare 44, whose theme was “Your life is currency”.

Here’s the game’s LD page. It went well considering it was our first Ludum Dare game. I like that getting hit affects both your appearance (you lose a limb or an eye) and the gameplay (your character is correspondingly weakened). However, it still just feels like a vanilla Isaac-esque game. Nothing is perfect on the first try though!

For some reason, we coded it in plain JS using a canvas instead of using a proper game framework. What were we thinking?
