Game Information

UPDATE: You can now play in your browser! (unless you're on Internet Explorer or something)

However, due to an unforeseen CSS mistake of mine, the game's logo might cover part of the screen depending on your resolution. A possible workaround is turning on fullscreen mode and zooming out (hold CTRL and scroll down your mouse wheel).

This issue is not present in the downloadable version!


Gameplay

The whole world is in jeopardy! Those dastardly creatures are coming for the helpless citizens, and as powerful as she is, Lorem shall bear the burden of being their dependable guardian.

Be the one to orchestrate her plan of attack as you gain access to a whopping total of 26 different techniques each assigned to a letter of the keyboard!

Even with a multitude of powers, though, desperate situations call for desperate measures. That's why you should always consider those permanent upgrades...

Controls
  • Any letter - Conjures one of Lorem's special attacks.
  • Hold Left Mouse Button - Opens the permanent upgrade menu. Move the pointer over one of the upgrades to select it.
Credits
  • Giancarlo França - Coding, background music
  • Raquel Marcolino - In-game art, sound effects
  • Daniel Rosso - Title screen and logo design
  • Special thanks to YellowAfterLife for his HTML5 loading bar extension
