Welcome to Fortress Knights. Where your knight is a fortress. 

  • Breaking bricks with your head will regain your HP
  • Taking Damage or building bricks will reduce it

Watch out for the wall of flame encroaching from the left. Destroy all the fortress knights to emerge victorious.

Controls:

  • Arrow Keys or WASD - Move
  • [Z] or [.] - Attack
  • [X] or [/] - Jump
  • Attack + Jump - Build a Brick under your character


I made this as I was really wanting to make something in the gameboy style for its anniversary. What would a 2019 style game feel like with the sort of concessions to adapt for the form factor. It's my first time working with screen effects to shift the color and pixel density, and also 2d animated sprites. I have so much to learn and improve on.

This game was made with Unity 2018.3, SFXR, and Aseprite. There was so much I wanted to add (more complex brick building shapes, many more weapons, and enemy patterns). Hope you enjoy it!


Known issues:

  • If you let a knight slip into the fire their death wont count and the game will be softlocked. Refresh the browser page to restart.
  • In the third scene the outer screen frame will disappear
