About

KlSS (Key, love, Sword, Shield) is a simple puzzle game with retro (Atari 2600) aesthetics. The first few levels expose the main features and serious challenges come after that. You like challenging your mind? Give this game a try.

Level Editing

Levels are located in the Content subfolder. To create a new level, turn ON level editing and use the PageUp button to go past the last level. This should bring you to a very minimalist template level. Edit it at will and then save with the Floppy Disk icon.

  • Tab: Toggle level editor
  • Mouse click
    • On level: Paint tile with selected brush
    • On tiles at the right: Select brush
    • On floppy disk at the bottom: Save level to file
  • Right mouse click (on level): Erase tiles
  • Mouse wheel: Select next/previous brush

                                                                                                                        

Are you a game developer?

KlSS is my first attempt at using MonoGame (I've been using Unity). Here's the stuff that might interest you:

  • It is opensource.
  • It integrates CircleCI; the game is built automatically for Windows, Mac and Linux each time a commit is pushed to GitHub.

                                                                                                                        

Special thanks

  • Jean-David Moisan, for inspiring me into using MonoGame;
  • Gabriel Le Breton, for his integration of CircleCI.
