The Gaunt

The Gaunt is a small, narrative-driven RPG set in a world out of time. Play as The Traveller, a character forced to visit this world as a stop-gap on a greater journey.

I created it as a portfolio project to showcase my writing skills.

The splash screen and title screen state "Beyond Jupiter Games," a faux game studio I created for the project. You can see my full name in the credits.

I created the game with several criteria in mind, namely:

1. It must be built in GB Studio;
2. There is only a two-colour pallet (because I'm terrible at art);
3. The game can be completed in under 30 minutes;
4. It includes very basic quests, controls, and battle interfaces.

Keyboard for playing in-browser (and most emulators) controls:

• UP - Arrow up / W
• DOWN - Arrow down / S
• LEFT - Arrow left / A
• RIGHT - Arrow right / D
• A - Alt / Z / J
• B - Control / K / X
• START - Enter
• SELECT - Shift
