Run, die, retry and escape the dungeon.



Knightmare Run is my first game !
It currently features a tutorial level and 11 handcrafted levels.
The gameplay is inspired by Super Meat Boy. 
It's a fast-paced platformer where trial and error is part of the fun.
You play as a little knight trying to escape a dungeon filled with spikes, spinning blades and deadly traps.
With the right path and timing, each level takes less than 10 seconds to beat... except the last one ;)
It is meant to be played on desktop but it also works on mobile. There are basic touch controls. 

Touch controls:

Tap and hold the ← and → arrows  to move left and right

Tap the ↑ arrow  to jump

Tap the top of the screen to pause and open the menu.


Keyboard controls:

A → Move left  

D → Move right  

Space → Jump  

R  → Restart level

Escape  → Pause and menu

Here are my best times, can you beat them?
