About The Project

The knight's quest is a single-player, platforming game built with javascript and kaplay, a javscript based game engine. With bite-sized but well thought levels, simple controls, and a decent set of mechanics, it is a great choice for a small gaming session.

It has also been published on itch.io.

More levels will be added over time!

Usage

You can use the arrow keys to move left and right. Press the spacebar to jump and x to shoot fire balls. Fire balls can destroy tiles (red blocks) as well as scaffolds (purple blocks). Water elevators allow you to climb greater heights. Collect all the coins to make the knight happy!

Here are some in-game screenshots

I'd love to see contributions that add more levels to game. You don't have to write a single line of code to submit levels. Use the spritesheet from ./public/spriteSheets/spriteSheet.png and the tiled map editor to create a level. Export the map in the .tmx form in the ./public/tiled folder, and create a pull request. It's that easy!
