Michicumba

Nokia-style video game made for the 2024 Nokia Game Jam.
According to the jam rules, we could only use 2 colors representing old Nokia aesthetics. Also, we only had 2 weeks to finish the game.
Title is a combination between the words "Michi" and "Macumba". "Michi" is the nickname we give cats here in Argentina. "Macumba" is slang for "dark magic ritual or substance".
We won 3rd place! https://itch.io/jam/nokiajam6/results

Speedrun

Sprites of our feline main protagonist

The game's main enemies. We ended up only using 1 design out of 4. Having decided the focus of the game being survival through sound recognition, making the enemies visually unrecognizable became our new objective. The unused sprites look neat though.

The Witch commands you to collect some delicious ectoplasm from the cemetery in order to create her precious "macumba" (potion). Idle. Speaking. Pointing (follows the cat when he walks in front of her). Final transformation (discarded ending).
