Directions:

WASD, arrow keys, or most game controllers: jump, left, crouch, right

SPACE or game controller buttons: speak, view items, open chests

Number buttons: select dialogue option, unavailable on game controllers yet

Make sure to talk to characters.


This is a platformer built  in JavaScript/TypeScript.

This includes a newly built Yarn parser and VM implemented in Gleam. This VM works with the game engine to show in-game dialogue. Yarn is a  full-fledged programming language, so I also wrote many interesting test programs to make sure my VM can handle the most challenging workloads.

I haven't built games since the days of GameMaker 7.0 before YoYoGames bought GM. It's nice to be back.

Hi, I figured out moving is WASD and space bar activates the dialog/text labels. But how to open the treasure chest (for example)?

Hello, the chest only has an item description seen with space bar. I didn’t have time to include an inventory/chest opening system.

Thank you for playing!
