⚠️ Content Warning: This game contains flashing lights/effects that may not be suitable for people with photosensitive epilepsy.

A knight cursed by a strange affliction — prolonged exposure to open air triggers a dangerous fever. The only cure? Water. Race across the coast, manage your fever meter, and watch out for the dangers lurking beneath the waves as you push through 3 increasingly difficult levels.

Can you outrun the burn and reach the cool water before the fever consumes you?

⚔️ Features:

• 3 levels with rising difficulty
• Grappling hook mechanic for fast travel
• 2 difficulties : Easy and Hard
• Fever meter that forces you to balance land and water — as it climbs, dizziness and hallucinations set in, and reaching 100% means game over!
• Underwater platforming sections with enemies lurking in wait
• 3 water enemies : Swordfish, Octopus and Anglerfish
  
  

Known Issue:  Water enemies/creatures might look stuck or frozen when you are far away from them. This bug is already fixed locally, but the patch will be uploaded right after voting ends (since file uploads are locked during the jam voting phase)!

Game Hint : if you are in the Water area try timing your jumps precisely and remember you can dash over things, and if things get really hard for you remember that most of the time you will need to jump to things that are the closest to you in the water.

Meant to be played in Full Screen on PC

Heads up, this game can be challenging sometimes — but with a bit of persistence, I believe you can beat it!
