Knossos
A downloadable game for Windows
Knossos is a brief & eerie Puzzle/RPG set in a ever-growing Labyrinth.
The design and premise draws inspiration from cyclical-structure games, first-person dungeon-crawlers of old, and the Greek legend of Theseus and the Minotaur. It was created over the course of 2 weeks for the summer My First Game Jam
It also features some awful 4 am last minute writing, and some sloppy programming.
Controls:
Arrows/WASD to navigate
Enter to Select/Open the first-person menu
Tab/Q to back out of said menu
Escape to quit.

All other sounds and art were created by me.
Knossos may not be a particularly good game, but its the first game I've actually developed to completion.
And that means a lot, to me at least.

very rough around the edges but i love the atmosphere and im really intrigued by the gimmick of being able to enter the first person battle view at any time id love to see that explored more. cool stuff ^__^
also only found this cuz i posted a comic with the same name so it came up when i searched. lovely little coincidence
congrats on your first game! i love anything with a hellenic theme, so i was stoked to give this a try! i'm impressed with the amount of mechanics and features going on here, and i'm digging the contrast in the graphics -- black and white might have been a bit too stark, but black and gray creates a nice, gloomy, appropriately labyrinthine atmosphere.
thank you so much! : )
