An evil magician has turned the inhabitants of the world into monsters, it's up to you and your yoyo to destroy their evil castle and restore peace!

* Stylish movement with plenty of yoyo tricks to learn
* Four fiendishly difficult levels
* NES-style graphics and music
* The infamous Finale cannon room

This project was led by my friend [WuffMakesGames](https://wuffmakesgames.itch.io/), with music and sounds supplied by [Harpy+](https://harpyplus.itch.io/) and cover art drawn by [CornetTheory](https://cornettheory.itch.io/). I was put in charge of the level design across the entire game, and I made sure that it stayed *authentically* difficult to the old NES era platformers I'm most familiar with.
