Hello Jacals!!

(Not affiliated or endorsed, just excited)

Jacals is finally available for download! It’s only a playable demo at this point. But it’s something, and that’s new. So why get it now instead of later? So that you can shoot some bad guys, of course.

Jacals is all about shooting bad guys, and that much is available in this first demo. The future plans are to add variety in how you shoot bad guys, and to set a distinctive style.

There’s already stealth and character switching (since those two really are at the core of the game). I’ll be adding more locations, more enemy types and more weapon types quickly. What will require more thought and planning is giving opportunities to use non-weapon tools in nasty ways (e.g. a simple flare gun can be all kinds of distracting…), builds (poof! a bunker), and what I hope will be a rather unique take on crafting. I want to do all this while giving that military feel of hurry-up-and-wait without actually, you know, waiting. Crafting without grind is, I think, a worthy challenge all by itself.

So pick up a special copy at a special price at Itch; and follow and support my dream at Patreon.
