Deepest Sword

Explore the depths of the Cavern of Longing and bury your sword deep into the heart of the dragon in this retro puzzle platformer game - Deepest Sword! Move in unexpected ways and overcome various obstacles.

Deepest Sword is a retro-styled action platformer game with a fun physics mechanic and a clever premise. In this game, your avatar will yield a greatsword that's heavier than himself. Feel the weight of the giant sword as each swing will disorient your character's position. Unfortunately, due to the sheer size and weight of the sword, your character lost his ability to jump. Use the sword's momentum to move in unconventional ways that you never thought possible except today.

This game proves that size DOES matter. But you have to learn how to wield it. Else you'll end up hurting yourself. It would be best if you analyzed the sword's length. Some swords might just get in your way - especially in narrow places. Find the right balance of mobility, weight, and length to conquer the dungeons ahead and slay that dragon.

This game was developed by Cosmic Adventure Squad under 72 hours for the Ludum Dare 48 Jam. Can you beat the speedrunners and create your own speedrun record?
