Description

Use arrow keys or WASD to move and advance text.

Created for Ludum Dare 26 in under 48 hours. Theme: Minimalism.

Persist is a tale of small spirit trying to reach a mysterious goddess to seek for forgiveness for his past sins, so he can move on to higher plane of existence. Unfortunately, the goddess isn't feeling very helpful, and the further you travel in her sanctuary, the more sacrifices she demands from you in form of your limbs. Lose your arms, and you can no longer swim. Lose your legs, and you can no longer jump. As you trek deeper into the dungeon, you lose your skills one by one, making your quest more and more dangerous.

Can you reach salvation? Or are you doomed to lose all hope, and your whole existence, in the deep and dark sanctuary?

You would think that resolve could float.

The first three levels took me forever and the lack of control I had over my character was outragous. Yet, when I got to the part when I couldn't see my character, I beat that in like 30 seconds and didn't die once. Life doesn't make sense.

The thing about removing the player's ability to jump is that it makes puzzles simpler to solve, but harder to design as solvable.

Amazing game. Short, yet full of emotion.
