denudation by zillix
a wanderer finds himself in an unfamiliar world, in search of an ancient shrine that is said to bestow vast power to those who reach it.
in this land, destroying an object breaks it down into its fragments, which can be used to gain immense power.
--OBJECTIVE--

--CONTROLS--
LEFT / RIGHT / UP / DOWN - move and jump
Z (hold) - attract nearby fragments
X - attack
+/- to change volume
--UPDATES--
added a post-compo version!
- music tweaked
- various animation added (including fragment absorption)
- miscellaneous map tweaks
- ??secret ending??

My only major complaint is the text was often-times away from the action, and the first time I played through, I often missed what was said.
You're games usually have some eastereggs, or alternate endings, but I didn't see any in this one. Did I miss any? I'll probably play through again later just to be sure.
Overall, really nice job. Keep up the good work. I always look forward to playing your LD games.
Oh, and the subtle shift in music with the addition of more power was a great touch. Thanks for sharing this one.
I appreciate all of the wonderful comments :D
FYI, there's only 1 ending and only a few small easter eggs (check out the top corners), but more are coming in a post-compo version!
REALLY FUN!
I enjoyed growing in power as I destroyed the enemy, and it felt fair that I lost mobility when more powerful. The boss battle was really well made! Every part was fun and different.
Great job!
I cannot think of anything that would make this game better.
One of the best I've seen yet.
I wouldn't mind playing this all day if it were longer.
Definitely my favorite entry so far!
What amazing game here and nice soundtrack as bonus.
