Goal

Albert got in a horrible accident early on in his life that left him paralyzed from the waist down. He lived most of his life that way before passing away peacefully surrounded by friends and family. When he arrived in heaven, he was appalled to see he remained disabled. Thus, he set out on a mission to go to hell and make a deal with the devil. 

Avoid enemies and their bullets. Pick up items for health or a special ability. Engage in a harrowing battle with the Holy Trinity.

Behind the Scenes

This is my first game. I've spent a few months not only learning how to code but improving this game and fleshing it out.  I never thought I would enjoy coding this much, let alone tolerate it, but I like making games. I started this game with no plan and it slowly evolved to being biblically themed. At the start I had a spaceship. I moved on to Albert and my first enemy, the bat, but it was ugly and missing so many elements from the final game.

I am very happy with how the final game turned out.
