<p>We're making this game. It's pretty good so far. Write us if you want to try it, I'll send you an early build</p> <p style="text-indent: 0px">"The Girl Who Kicked a Rabbit" is an ethereal, pulp splurging, contemplative stroll from one end of a city to the other.</p>
<p>You control a girl. She fights ghostly, rabbit-like creatures. <p style="text-indent: 0px">As the little combat wizard Lys, you'll use the "Arcana" to fight a geyser of cute, and clever spirit bunnies.</p>
They keep coming until you win the level somehow (it's complicated (but fun!)).
When you kill enemies, they drop power-ups or stuff to craft new spells.
Battles are turn-based.</p>
<p><p><figure><img src="/images/game1/city_small.gif"></br></img></figure></p> <p></br></p>
<p>The spells, systems, and enemy behaviour, lend themselves to a lot of interesting choices, but it isn't really a strategy game. <p><figure><img style="border-radius: 5px" src="/images/game1/narratively_minimal.png"></br></img></figure>
Maybe on par with a JRPG, but there is no leveling or character outfitting. Nor is there really a plot. There's a setting, and a bunch of levels.</p> <p style="text-indent: 0px">You dabble in the mystical arts: The knowledge of Arcana.</p>
<p><p><figure><img src="/images/game1/initial_small.gif"></br></img></figure></p> <p style="text-indent: 0px">Like so many others, Lys patrols the city at night, fighting the ghostly rabbit monsters.</p>
<p>It runs on Windows, MacOS, and Debian. Write me if you wanna try it (Like seriously, playtesters are the best).</p> <p style="text-indent: 0px">Although this night... there sure a LOT of rabbits.</p>
<p>I maintain a sporadic development log on TIGSource (<a href="https://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=71999.0">here</a>)</p> <p></br></p>

<p style="text-indent: 0px">Combat in "The Girl Who Kicked a Rabbit" is designed as an easy-going experience, with a whole basket of meticulously crafted mechanics to fiddle around with.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 0px">Every element of the game is engineered to react in the fastest, most responsive way.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 0px">Selecting one of your astral weapons and obliterating a long-eared bugger, is an interface delight. The bunnies will hold "Catalysts", that you'll need in order to win.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 0px">Understanding which of these otherworldly baubles you need, and actually getting them before they disappear, will be half the battle.</p>
<p></br></p>
<p><figure><img style="border-radius: 5px" src="/images/game1/mini-crafting.png"></br></img></figure>
<p style="text-indent: 0px">No reason to get all tricked out before the next hand-to-hand: Every battle gives you a different collection of mystical "Arcana" to wield. Some of them are good to go, and others you have to unlock on the job.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 0px">Good thing every critter killed is a piñata of goo-covered treasure.</p>
<p></br></p>
<p><figure><img style="border-radius: 5px" src="/images/game1/all_day.png"></br></img></figure>
<p style="text-indent: 0px">Even victory is tied to this: Murdering doe-eyed bunny beasts isn't always enough! Somehow, you'll need to get enough "God's Wine" to close the flaming portals that keep sending out more opponents.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 0px">Sometimes the rabbits will drop this celestial nectar, and sometimes a more economic approach is required.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 0px">If you've got a little chemist inside you somewhere, there might be an option as well.</p>
<p></br></p>
