Soul Pals

Soul Pals is a single-player puzzle platformer in which you play as two soul-bound pals that need to work together to escape their dark and soundless dungeon. The two are cursed to share a soul tether and can only handle moving one at a time, lest they burn out their souls. After a set interval of time, the soul gets overloaded from one body and shot along the tether to the opposite side. If either body gets hit by this fatal shot, both pals die.

Controls:

This is the jam version of the game made for GMTK Game Jam 2021 to the theme of Joined Together. As a result of time constraint, it is content incomplete and is more of a proof of concept.

Development Team:
Programmer: Daniel MacCormick
Artist: Alain Sangalang


Post Jam Update:
We have decided to not only finish what we had hoped to include in for the jam but omitted due to time restraints (i.e. audio, menus, effects) but to continue with development with a few more levels and mechanics as well. Feel free to follow us here on itch.io or twitter (@rubberducksdev) to keep up to date with our progress.

Release Update: The full version, Soul-O, is now complete and ready to play for free! Try it out now: https://rubber-ducks.itch.io/soul-o
