Mighty Peasant Quest

Your horse has been kidnapped by the King.
And you want your horse back. With no waypoints you loop to the start and try again.

Mighty Peasant Quest is a short, retro-inspired side-scroller made in under 3 days for the GMTK Game Jam 2025.

**NB: The game should run okay now and a complete level will be uploaded very soon. R= Restart**

Dodge traps, avoid guards, and brave the castle to reunite with your noble steed — Apple.

🎮 Features

• One partial level (for now!)

• Old-school platforming inspired by Hunchback and Pitfall

• C64-style charm 

⚠️ Note: This was my first ever jam game, built solo and submitted just under the wire. It’s rough, incomplete, and buggy — but playable, and it should give a clear idea of what the final version might become.

If you try it, I’d love your feedback! Thanks for playing!
