Relinquish

NOTE: There's a system in place that respawns certain blocks' enemies, but I didn't signpost it. I.e. you don't need to brute force your way through a door with a goblin.

Relinquish is a dungeon battler that puts you in control of a body snatcher. Switch bodies with your enemies before your host dies to keep fighting and make it out of the castle to save the prince. Hurry; he might not be alive when you get there if you take too long.

--

To do well, be mindful of the weaknesses and strengths of the various creatures, and make careful use of your soul crystals, which allows you to transfer your soul to another creature even when your host dies.

REMEMBER: Retreating is crucial when you are outmatched. Enemies keep their HP if you retreat, so use it often.

Known bugs:

- Sometimes the game softlocks; I've yet to reproduce it consistently, so hard to say what causes it. If this happens, hopefully the retreat button is still there, which should fix the issue.

I did all the design, coding, art, and SFX. (I was going to add music, but ran out of time.)
