Swordless

A broken sword... The left hand controls the hilt, the right hand guides the blade. They work together to reach the end, and unite as one!

About the Game

An ancient divine sword was cursed and split in two. Only by wielding the hilt and the blade separately with both hands in perfect sync can the weapon be reforged and the seal broken!

Take on single-screen platforming stages, controlling the hilt and blade simultaneously with both hands. Coordinate them through increasingly difficult challenges!

· A "multiplayer game" played solo.
· Take on 100 levels.
· Use both hands at once — left and right in harmony: place the hilt and blade on the sword stand together to reunite them.
· Retro CRT style.
