SquashBuckler

A candy loving pirate is cursed and his head was replaced with a pumpkin. Now he shoots his head out of a cannon in search of a cure (and more candy).

** NOTE: This game is UNFINISHED. The Eye of Newt pickup is not textured so you won't be able to find it in this current build of the game. Just collect all of the gems and have fun! **

This game was built for the 32 Bit Jam. 2022   The lead developer had to stop half-way through the jam to move across country, so many ideas and assets were left unfinished.  In this first "game jam"  version of SquashBuckler, you will play as Jacko's pumpkin head. You will roll around  and explore the world while collecting gems .  In the future, Jacko will collect candies  and will unlock abilities that go along with the story.  We also plan on introducing enemies, attacks, and a health bar in the form of a candle.
