J4CK-0-L4NTERN is a short platformer where the only way to destroy enemies is reflecting the projectiles they shoot at you. As the name suggests it should be a reimagining of the legend of the Jack o' Lantern in a futuristic setting, but not really.
Commands
A/D - Move left/right
Space Bar - Jump
Mouse - Move the lantern
Left mouse button - Shield; it will stay active as long as you keep the mouse button pressed
Warning: If playing the web version you run into any problems, graphical glitches or the game just doesn't run well consider playing the game in another browser or, if you are using Windows, you can also play the downloadable version of the game.
Instruction for the downloadable version: The 64bit version should work on most computers, however if the 64bit version is not compatible with your architecture you can download the 32bit version. After you have downloaded the .rar file and extracted its content execute J4CK-0-L4NTERN.exe to play the game.
Changelog
Fixed the crashes that used to happen in the web version
Now if the shield energy goes below 25% it starts recharging, this way if the shield runs out of energy you are not forced to restart the section
