Castle Yokai (Demo)
Castle Yokai **Demo**
Castle Yokai is a fun, easy to intermediate 2D side-scrolling pixel platformer with inspiration from Japanese folklore.
Jump, dodge and weave your way through a mysterious castle in feudal Japan that has been overrun by all manner of Yōkai*. You are the last hope to rid the castle of these tricky little beasties.
Demo Limitations
This demo contains the first chapter consisting of 10 levels and a boss. There browser version had some issues with audio stuttering, so I had to do some tricks to stop this from happening. As a result you may notice some pauses in the background music when transitioning scenes. This issue is not present in the downloadable versions.
It is my first game and any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.
