Arena of Death

Submission for the Gamedev.tv Gamejam 2022 

Story

You are Chris Pliskin. 

And you recently passed away. The Reaper welcomes you

in a kind of intermediate level between heaven and hell.

...but there is a small problem...

Heaven doesn't want you and Hell is full!!!

And so the Reaper offers you a deal.

Fight against the other "newcomers" in the Arena of Death and get 1 Million souls for the Grim Reaper.He will then let you into heaven. 

However, if you fail, you will be trapped in purgatory forever.

Will you take the deal?

The Game(Gameplay)

Arena of Death is a 2D Souls like Arenagame. 

You have to fight trough waves of enemys. Every wave the enemys gets more and / or stronger. 

After each wave you can reload munition, healpotions and other consumables. 

You can also buy new Items, Weapons and Abilities.

Your goal is to reach the 1 Million souls to end the Game.  But you musst also pay in souls for your new Gear and Abilities. So decide wisely. 

Nothing is free even after Death
