Sacrifice
Note: due to a weird bug, characters might randomly not respawn correctly. If this happens, you can always restart the current level with esc button.
As the prophecy foretold, the Calamity has returned, and with it, Death. To please the gods, champion after champion are sent to the Temple to pass its Trials but so far none have returned. Now, it is your turn to face the unknown that lies deep in the ancient Temple.
Chosen hero, let the sprits of the fallen guide you on your journey. Please, bring us peace.

Or, there's only 1 level, or they all look very similar :P
However I like the idea, art and animations a lot, and the audio is great too :)
Hi! Thanks for testing our game and for the feedback.
This is actually a critical bug that I only noticed now. There should be multiple levels but apparently I somehow managed to break the level switching script during the last evening as I'm certain that it has been working previously. In my understanding critical bug fixes are allowed by the jam rules so I have now updated the build to a version in which the player can actually proceed in the game...
Please try the game again if you have time! If you liked the concept/beginning, you should enjoy the other levels too. The rest of the puzzles are a lot more interesting than the first.
Are you by the way participant of the jam or did you just happen to find the game randomly? I'm just interested. I haven't usually got comments other than from jam people. Also, if you are part of the jam, link me your game so I can try it (at least if it's browser playable).
I will be trying out your other levels as well, And I'm also a participant of the jam.
Only just found out that there's a separate comment section on the jam page itself :P
and this is our jam game. :)
