deadkeys

IT'S REALLY REALLY REALLY HARD SO PLEASE CLICK HOW TO PLAY so you know what you are dealing with lol. ENJOY! (it took me a long time to beat it)

The horde cannot kill you. Every hit corrupts a key instead: first CORRUPTED, where each press moves you in a random wrong direction and the keycap rots , then DEAD keys (do nothing). Lose all five and the you've failed...

You carry the orb the temple needs. The only way there is through the forest, at night. SURVIVE 5 minutes till dawn. WASD move · mouse aim · hold left button to throw fire · SPACE dash

Black pools, the blood your own kills leave behind, and the world's edge all seep corruption. Watch the pools rise with kills.

The beacon at the world's center mends corrupted keys, if you stay there. 

Level up and choose powerups... 

Headphones recommended. (LOUD SOUND WARNING)

Made solo for Pixel Forge Jam #2 (theme: CORRUPTED).
