Magical Girl Emmie's Step-By-Step Guide to Battle Royales
A downloadable game for Windows
[Made as part of AI and Game's 2021 Inaugural Game Jam! ....also as part of a last minute pivot so I do apologize for any bugginess or lack of polish ^^;;]
Magical Girl Emmie is, for currently mysterious reasons, testing her luck in a 5 stage Battle Royale.
The odds are stacked against her since she doesn't *actually* know any magic. Still, as her faithful and invisible familiar you can bend the rules in her favor via some Baba Is You inspired rule-swap mechanics.
As for the battle itself, no worries about twitch reflexes, it's turn-based baby!
Oh and if you fall of the edge don't worry, the Void will return any unit that falls into it back onto the map after a round...well...most of the time. It does occasionally get Hungry so try not to fall off too much
Controls:
Change Facing: [WASD] or [Arrow Keys]
SwapRules: Drag & Drop (note that rules can only be swapped with those of the same type)
Swap Units: Drag & Drop
Future Features:
A few Visual Novel style cutscenes
A collection of new abilities to shape and trap the field while you wait for everyone to take their turn
A slew of QoL improvements
????
The incessant hum of a silent and uncaring universe will be replaced by, like, chiptune or something.
