The game jam ended 2 days ago and I was going to post this before but… It was never finished. The game’s half the length it should’ve been, the ending of the game was rushed and the final boss which was supposed to have special attacks like jumping in the air and throwing down spears just walks back and fourth… Here’s the game: > **[Katandra: Hollow Heist](https://arcade.makecode.com/S00597-29460-97016-19782)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. In Katandra: Hollow Heist you will go on an adventure (A short one) to find the Void Amulet and stop the Oni from taking over the land of Katandra… Extra details: Be sure to look around for secret areas and shortcuts that might have items that can help you on your journey. Press A, B and Up to reset your save progress. Please tell me what you think of the game. ---

Pretty cool. Kind of hard to control but made it halfway anyways. ---

Thank you @RoboVacDev and @Hulahoop. Here are some extra details about the game: 1.Some big platforms that aren’t floating have chests, one of these chests is contains the Phantom Sword which is a heavy sword that deals more damage that any other weapon and replaces your ground pound with a downward slash which you can use to bounce off enemies and fire. (The orange stuff you fall into if you fail a jump) 2.The character that you play as is called Lorn and they were originally going to be a character for Battle Zenith. (They’re still going to be added to Battle Zenith eventually) 3.In the game’s code there is a fully functional 4th weapon called the Spectral Kunai that I never added to the game. The Spectral Kunai and the full sets of all weapons will be in my upcoming game: **Katandra**. (I have too many upcoming games) ---

i was thinking of giving my character in my game a duck ability, but your game changed my mind… yeah never unduck under or you will get softlocked. ---

Yeah somebody told me that that happened which made me realize that I deleted the code stopping that from happening. When I make the full Katandra game the anti softlock code will be back. ---

noice, i wonder if there is a way to make it so that your sprite can detect if your under a block, then make the sprite itself stay ducked so wall-clipping is avoided. ---

Within the next week I will release a demo for the new and improved Katandra, after that I _might_ use the new system to remake this. When it releases it will be in The Astral Zone. > [@The Astral Zone](https://forum.makecode.com/t/the-astral-zone/28277/253): > > A demo for Katandra is coming soon…
