Unnecessary Evil
Sacrifice your friends to move forwards!
Glark, Steve, Bonny-chan, Noruto et Hodur were fighting against the evil Lord Druksor.
But suddently, they wake up in a strange and ominous place...
If they want to resume their fight against evil, they must get of here, and quick!
But Glark, the leader of the team, may have to take drastic actions to once again see the light of day...
Alternate control between five characters in this puzzle-platformer.

It was a short but fun puzzle game. Took a few tries to get everyone through the dungeon unscathed.
cool game very pog 10/10
Rather fun, and reminds me of "no-one has to die"!
I found that if you used the "restart game" hotkey at the end of the game though, the speech bubble persists and covers up everything which makes it hard to replay without refreshing
Loved it!!

"Cause that's what heroes do."
I won't spoil the game by saying how it ends, but this game really lives up to it's name, the ending really got me by surprise, it was a fun experience and a good lesson to learn.
Here is my link for my Video:
more like sacrifices must not be made
Very Fast Walkthrough to NOT SACRIFICE anyone! :3 [ With time stamp ]
Hope this helps!
i did it with all people LOL
is it even possible to make it past the third level TnT
yeah, just use the naruto guy and hold the jump button to get to the button, it's possible to the game with everyone alive
this was so awesome! thanks!
Very good game! Glad I played before reading the comments. Thanks so much for making this!
I was so ready to sacrifice everyone.
BELIEVE IT! NO ONE LEFT BEHIND! Sasuke would be very proud :)
DATTEBAYO
I keep killing him man! He must be dissapointed in me!
Now THAT was some pretty necessary evil.
WHY IS THIS SO HARD
bug report:
if i restart level or game during dialogue sequence. the dialogue will remain after, and cause the game to freeze
Really good job with the subtle differences in platforming abilities between characters. It made the game fun to play through a second time when realizing that you can save everyone!
Thank you for the superb game... yes we killed them over and over :D
Loved this game! Great idea! Wish it was longer!!! Any plans to expound on this game and idea?
gu gem, buttt level three seem a bit buggy
Solid game, well-made.
This is a very good game, especially for a game made in 72 hours, but it reminds me of BFDI 5b. I even used some techniques from that game like grab boosting (grabbing your friend, throwing him, switching to your friend, grabbing yourself, throwing, switching to yourself, then repeat)
Friendships wins again. Great work with it, had fun solving the puzzles. :)
good play~~~!!!!!!!!!
