Tiny Bow Guy

"Behold brave archer!

The kingdom is in desperate need of a new hero. Countless malevolent creatures are keeping the townsfolk in fear and a savage world awaits its taming. Our glorious king – man of sheer majesty and resplence – has proclaimed a big tournament in search for the greatest archer of all the lands, to become the new hero.

Are you skilled enough with your bow to claim this title?

Hurry!
You should begin your training as soon as possible to get ready for this journey."

                                                      

Due to a previous jam, the Little Guy Jam, we developed this reimagining of John Di Troia’s 1992 title „Bow and Arrow“. We wanted to bring it back to life and create our own interpretation of the style and the story. This new version is still in progress and we are looking forward to bring the game back to life with its fresh look.

                                                      

For the upcoming Revival Jam, we decided to participate with this project, because it just fitted so perfectly to the spirit of this jam. 

In addition to keeping things as fair as possible, we didn’t want to just show our current work in progress. Instead, we used this jam to implement a classic mode that lets you experience the original story from version 1.0 of "Bow and Arrow" (1992) by John Di Troia.
