About This game

​the theme is Your life is currency.

It make me think of the book I read before, call Chronicle of a Blood Merchant​​. ​it is a story about a man selling blood to earn money to overcome some difficulty.

​​And I think it is good for the theme and would like to make it.

Although it is a very simple platformer game.

Hope anyone would like it.

Tools I use

​This time I try to use Construct2​ Game Engine. For the art I use Aseprite. And Sound use BFXR​.

Sad story :cry: The controlling is a little difficult (and kind of annoying, tbh), but it becomes easier when you are used to it. The color makes the game impressive. I just wish there was a way to retry instead of waiting for timing up.

I give the 5 points of humor of this game, even it's a very sad story especially in the context of China History, But I get the author's point! The shitty control feeling precisely transmits the very sad mood of the character, I am so touching. : )

Can somebody just tell me what's in the end? I can ... not ... finish ... the ... game. It's too hard for me.

Nice color choice. I really appriciate the red color. And I can see the level design of the last level(maybe?) has some story telling. I can feel the attachment from the character. Well, the control is designed to be hard to explain the difficulty of the character's life. And it really matches the theme.

I'm thinking about the connection between the gameplay and selling blood. It a little bit ambiguous. the gameplay tells me that you should finish the task(sell your blood) in time. But the reference novel is about you have to sell your blood. The connection is a little bit weak. And I doubt if the gameplay really helps to tell the story (especially for the non-hard-core player like me)

Solid platformer game. Hard but clever. I guess that colliders could be a little bit more improved, but it's good enough. Well done. I think that you should ads a background music - something oppressive which could help player playing. It fits the theme. Thanks ++
