Death of a Masochist
A drunken sadist who has been poisoned by a mysterious woman must find an antidote before his lost love makes it to the bar.
This is my creation for the
Adventure Jam 2023
It was good practice to clean up some aspects of my web game engine. I only had a good 4 solid days to work on this, so please forgive any imperfections. Hopefully I can perfect this more in the future.

This was truly a unique experience.
I had a few difficulties playing the game because the resolution is too high and I couldn't see the whole screen at once. But that could just be a problem on my part.
I have to admit that I was quite lost at the story. I had no clue what was going on. If you ever revisit the game, maybe explaining the story a bit more would be a good start. The puzzles are well telegraphed though. Even in my state of confusion, I knew what I had to do. Just not where to use the information. I stumbled into the right place more or less by accident.
The music is fitting and I absolutely love your character design. They have so much personality. Very memorable. The "look closer at things" menu with the eyeball is a fun idea too. Really unique.
TLDR: I have no idea what happened, but I enjoyed the ride. :))
