Soulswap is my entry for the 2023 GMTK Game Jam: Roles Reversed.

Soulswap combines high-intensity gameplay with an addictive try and retry gameplay loop. Inspired by gameplay elements from Superhot and Hotline Miami, Soulswap's main feature revolves around the fact that you exchange souls with every enemy you kill!

The game is in a really raw state as this was my first ever Game Jam so lots to learn and improve on :)

Features planned but not added due to time constraints : 

  • Better enemy interaction and combat
  • Pool cue throw is bugged and instantly disappears
  • Add in a cleaner animation for when an enemy is defeated and the souls are swapped
  • Fix various collision and audio bugs (sorry for your ears)
  • Add more levels (initial concept of the game featured cross-building combat that would require throwing weapons through windows in a specific order to kill all enemies
  • Better visuals / art
  • Music
  • More SFX
  • ... this list could go on for hours!
