"Hart" is a short 2D adventure platformer focusing around a theme of 'Love conquering Hate.' As the title implies, you'll be setting off on a platforming journey as Hart - an embodiment of pure Love - as he saves a mountainside town from the Hate. The Hate are creatures born from human conflict, and it is Hart's duty to rid the world of them, in order to make it a better place for everyone. Still, the Hate won't go down easily... Can Hart bring Love back to the town? Or will he just end up broken-hearted?
IMPORTANT: Hart is a relatively short experience. While there are checkpoints, the game does not have a Save system, so it is recommended to complete the game in one sitting (you will lose your progress if you close the game in the middle of playing).
This game was created by me, Griffin Allen, over 8 weeks for the non-profit organization Florida Love. There were challenges, but overall this was a very cool experience for me. I hope that anyone who comes across this game will have a fun time with it!
Need tips? You can find some below!
-After stunning the Hate clouds with your heart shot, you can shoot through them!
-Any defeated enemies, roses collected, and people saved will be stored after checkpointing. If enemies reappearing upon dying are annoying you, checkpoint after defeating them to save time.
-Get a feeling down for the timing of when the Hate clouds turn back to normal, and you can jump, shoot them again, and land back down on them.
-Keep on your toes during the boss, and watch for their green attacks!
-Roses collected and people recorded in the progress tracker on the top left appear in sequential order. Use this to get an idea of the places where there are remaining people and roses.
-Love will always conquer hate! Don't give up! <3
