The Hound has been tasked with seeking out and destroying the cause of a terrible madness that plagues a parish. Will he destroy the evil? or succumb to the madness himself...

one of the best games of the year by a landslide, the only game i can think of that is better than this is [methhead] but that game might break your computer.

10/10 would let developer crash on couch

:( damn seems like you liked all my other games, why not this one? :D

the controls, the enemies i cant see until too late the epilepsia level, killing cheeps :(, the stupid witch enemy, god its like you want us to suffer

Hehe, I see the ghost'n'Goblins inspiration indeed! nicely done, congrats!!


please remember though that z and x are not next to each other on some keyboards (azerty for example). they may be a common practice, but it's not a great one :D

x and c are better!

Ah good to know! I will start using X/C from now on!

ERGOT Gameplay

It looks cool but every time i Jump, it closes the window. I would suggest having the option to play with w, a, s, d and perhaps spacebar for jump.

Would love to play again if you update the controls.

Sincerly, Calart

Oh no ive never heard of that issue before now! its pretty common practice to use arrow keys and z x as controls. im sure if try in a different browser it would work fine!
