## About The Project

The knight's quest is a single-player, platforming game built with javascript and kaplay, a javscript based game engine. With bite-sized but well thought levels, simple controls, and a decent set of mechanics, it is a great choice for a small gaming session.

It has also been published on [itch.io](https://mgnfy-view.itch.io/the-knights-quest).

More levels will be added over time!

### Built With

- ![JavaScript][javascript-url]
- ![Kaplay](https://img.shields.io/badge/-KAPLAY-6BC96C.svg?style=for-the-badge)
- ![PNPM][pnpm-url]

## Getting Started

### Prerequisites

Make sure you have git, nodejs, and pnpm installed and configured on your system.

### Installation

Clone the repo and cd into it

```shell
git clone https://github.com/mgnfy-view/the-knights-quest
cd the-knights-quest
```

Install the project's dependencies

```shell
pnpm install
```

Start the server to run the game locally

```shell
pnpm run dev
```

Thats' it, you should be ready to go now.

## Usage

You can use the arrow keys to move left and right. Press the spacebar to jump and x to shoot fire balls. Fire balls can destroy tiles (red blocks) as well as scaffolds (purple blocks). Water elevators allow you to climb greater heights. Collect all the coins to make the knight happy!

Here are some in-game screenshots

I'd love to see contributions that add more levels to game. You don't have to write a single line of code to submit levels. Use the spritesheet from `./public/spriteSheets/spriteSheet.png` and the tiled map editor to create a level. Export the map in the `.tmx` form in the `./public/tiled` folder, and create a pull request. It's that easy!
