BardSouls

About:

BardSouls is a 2D action platformer game, with the twist being that it is affected heavily by music. The player will play as a Bard, with no weapons except for his instrument. The player will not be able to do any “Attacks” or “Defense”, but rather only have one skill, “Parry”.  Only certain attacks (music notes) will be able to be parried while others are meant to be avoid by the player.

The gameplay will revolve around a “Dodge” -> “Parry” -> repeat playstyle. To elaborate further, what this essentially means is that the boss will have various stage environmental attacks that the player has to dodge, before throwing in a parry-able attack.
