Goblin's Call is an adventure rpg where you play as a goblin who has the power to turn people into sheep and control them.

After the king betrayed you, you sought revenge but couldn't complete it. So you are back to complete your unfinished job.

Made for Road to Game Jam on the theme Invisible connections.

Discord- mj20037


Note: The story of this game is slightly connected its prequel, goblin shepherd and goblin alchemist.


Theme Interpretation:

The theme Invisible Connection is represented through the mysterious bond between the goblin and the sheep. Unlike a typical shepherd who leads their flock through visible means, the goblin possesses an uncanny ability—without any direct influence, the sheep instinctively follow, drawn to an unseen force that links them together.


Controls:

WASD/ Arrow Keys : Movement

R : Stop sheep from following you.

T : On/Off Torch

Num1: Shield Ability

Num2: Sleep Ability

Num3: Invisibility

came here from the post you left on Gamedev.tv's discord:
Fun simple idea. Love the music and the art is fun.

Critique:
1. not sure why but numpad keys not working to enable abilities so I had to press 1,2,3 above the a,s,d,w keys. I tested with numpad enabled and disabled with same bug result. Recommended fixes: Enable numpad 1,2,3 for use of abilities OR enable ability to custom configurations of keys.

2. Houses meant to be barriers on many levels look like you can run between them but you can't. Recommend more user comprehensive design of assets/sprites to indicate collision barrier present.

3. Movement speed inconsistent when moving about. It seems the speed is impeded by diagonal directional movement. If you can get the speed to flow in all directions I think that will significantly improve the feel of the game.

Great job and keep at it! Fun simple game with clear concepts. IF YOU DECIDE TO KEEP WORKING ON IT I'D LOVE TO PLAY IT AGAIN AFTER THE UPDATE.

Thanks for the feedback. I will work on these points to improve the game further.
