Kettlegirl's Escape

Hunted by a big steampunk organisation that tries to abuse Kettlegirl's magical steam generation abilities for their new product, Kettlegirl has to escape from her house, which is filled with machines and objects trying to incapacitate and deliver Kettlegirl to her pursuers.

An exciting dice cardbuilding adventure awaits you, in which you have to fight your way through the house, defeating toasters and washing machines alike. But watch out: Death isn't the end! Machines you kill, are merely banished to the shadow realm and may still impact your journey! Advance with care!

Help:

1. Movement:

When in a dungeon / room, press WASD to move kettlegirl. The movement can be strange at times, sorry about that!

You can move on spots that contain cookies to receive health, chests to receive loot, and enemies to fight.

2. Combat

You can drag your dice into your cards to use them. Take notice of what they require: Some require the dice to be even, others require it to be bigger than 5.

Winning battles will reward you with XP. If you level up, you receive an additional dice, your maximum HP is incremented, and you heal up.

3.  Status Effects

Flooded Dice: Have a 50% chance of being destroyed

Frozen Dice: Turn into a 1

4. Chests & Doors

Open chests by walking into them. A random event will be played before, however. When an event plays, you have to leave the chest tile and enter it again to get your item (a chest can only ever spawn 2 events). You can ignore the item or add it to your inventory. Enter the next level by walking into doors.

5. Boiling

You have a special "boiling" ability that you can use after taking a certain amount of damage. Press "E" to throw two new dice when ready.

This short little game features:

  • 20 cards
  • 5 enemies
  • 3 levels
  • 2 status effects
  • 1 boss

This short little game doesn't feature:

  • Good tile movement (Sorry 😥)

This is an awesome game! I tried three times but couldnt figure how to win my second fight. I need to heal.

Thank you :) Getting the dagger card from the chest definitely helps winning :D You heal after you level up

I didnt see any dagger card :(

It's in the chest in the first level ^^ I just pushed an update that fixed a bug that prevented that tho :/
