Bona Fido

Bona Fido

Made by Rae

Turns out the afterlife's not as bad as they say! Well, except for all the terrifying monsters, at least.

"Hey. Name's Fido. I'm a dog, as you can clearly see; but really I'm nothing but a bag of bones. The afterlife's pretty nice; it's a bit repetitive, but I can get used to it. It's pretty chill! ...Well, aside from all the unmentionable horrors that are out to kill me again. Maybe if I keep running around, I can find a way outta this place? Or at least set some new high scores."

Bona Fido is a fast-paced, single-screen platformer, inspired by classic arcade games but with a spooOOooky twist. Try for a new high score again and again as you narrowly dodge enemies, dig up treasures that could either help you eke out a record or spell your utter demise, and bark your way to becoming top dog of the afterlife! Don't worry, it only goes on forever.

πŸ₯ˆ Finished 2nd place in PlayJam 6!
