Please use the Windows version. Download the zip all the way down at the bottom, extract and open .exe file. The game should start from there and boot you into the start menu in windowed mode.  

Premise: You find yourself in a dungeon containing one of the Life & Death shards. Would you claim its power and become an agent of balance or simply try and escape with your life? Within the circle of life and death, there are also the 4 element. Just like time, the cycles move relentlessly, unless you learn to master them.

Some basic control instructions found in the game menu. If you are stuck, confused or otherwise - game guide included further down in the description.

Sadly lots unfinished, but I do hope you enjoy the little preview.   Learned a lot from this project - didn't think I would be able to do any 3d before this, but with the huge help of online tutorials and other people's free assets here we are.

 --- Guide ---

As soon as you start, you spawn in a circular arena. In the centre of it, you can see a crystal. When you approach it using WASD , you have the option to interact with it by pressing "E". When you interact, the world will slow down and you will be playing a mini-game where you are trying to get a spinning ball around some obstacles to the other side using your mouse cursor. You can cancel the mini-game by pressing "Spacebar". Once you finish the mini-game the boss will activate. Before that you can practice movement and attacks or simply enjoy the music.

Enter combat by pressing Left mouse button while you are not moving. Left click to attack, with 3 combo attacks. If you used WASD while an enemy is close and tagged, you can teleport short distance as you attack. You can block attacks and cancel attack animations with the parry - Right mouse click/hold. Spacebar to exit combat, as long as you are not attacking. Dash with shift and short Spacebar press for rolling. Hold and release for jumping (currently muted, so it won't be of great use). 

Once activating the boss, it will start spawning crystals at random. Active crystals heal the boss. By attacking and defeating the crystal by lowering it's health (around 12 attacks), the crystal turns into inactive state, stopping its attacks and healing . Here you have 2 options - Keep attacking it to destroy it, which will do direct damage to the boss or interact using "E" to do the mini-game again. When completed, this will give the player larger mana pool. Here you can interact again and after the same mini game (there were supposed to be different versions of it) you convert the crystal to help you damage the boss over-time. Crystal is still visible, but nothing can interact with it. After lowering the boss health to 0 you can consider yourself beating the game. Also you can't die.

You can also use "TAB" to change camera view, but it's not recommended, especially when using teleportation attacks.
