A downloadable game
Dahla's Journey is now available for MOBILE on ANDROID!

You can still play the buggy, LD-48 version by downloading it.
After a lifetime of working on a meaningless dead-end job for The Corporation, a small sentient being named Dahla embarks on a journey to discover the meaning of life. After exhausting her resources and spending all her savings, she travels far and reaches The Tower, where all living things go to be granted their Final Wish by The Power and then be released to transcend this life. The growling voice of The Power sounds astonished by her straightforward, unusual request, and throws her in the depths of The Pit, the infamous underground levels of The Tower. She must now face grave dangers unknown to her kind, with the promise of the greatest reward of all — pure, unfiltered knowledge.
Dahla's Journey is a turn-based broughlike game. Use the ARROW KEYS or WASD to move to an adjacent tile or attack an enemy on an adjacent tile. After you move, enemies will take their turn and move. Beware, they're unpredictable!
Look where you're going! If you stop on a tile adjacent to an enemy, the enemy will attack you. Every time you get attacked, you lose one damage, and if your health goes to zero, you die -- permanently! No backsies.
Reach the vortex to advance to the next level. How deep can you go?

Nice game. I like the intro. The mechanic works well, and I think would be even greater with different enemies with there own (predictable) pattern. Great mood
Thank you so much for playing and commenting! Will definitely work on variety in a future version, thank you for the feedback <3
Is there actually an ending or is it endless?
It is endless, for now. I will add some sort of ending in the future, though :)
Thank you for playing <3
np, really nice idea and execution :)
I think that the similarity between the game and my life is too strong and I was able to confirm that maybe I'm a masochist person. Thnk you for the self knowledge acquired!
LOL xD
Thank you for playing, man <3
