The Legendary Knight : Legend of the Pearl

A narrative platformer made in 7 days by psychowolf for the #beginner category of the #pixelgamejam2024.

You are THE LEGENDARY KNIGHT, the savior of Asterratia, the shield of the light, the killer of the Demon lord, the one and only Savior of Kitty kats!

You power is unmatched, it's been a long time since  you had a real challenge (a few hundred year, because of a certain under dragon...). 

However, in your last fight against the Archanon Mage of the  Magmatics you've been cursed: You can't touch water anymore! Despite it being annoying when it rains, you can't shower anymore!

Since you don't plan to start playing LOL you must retrieve the Blessed Pearl, jewel of the Atlantis Crown! After all, acessing an underwater city while having a water curse shouldn't be that hard?

So go ahead, and write the histories the bards of Asterratia with narrate for decade!

-PS: Since i had way bigger plans for this game in the first place i'm thinking about updating it after some important exams at the Improve My Game Jam 33 - itch.io and maybe even more.
