Adventures in Pureia Dev Log
For the purposes of the Hack the North Hackathon, here's Adventures in Pureia. It's currently still a work in progress, and I have stagnated on development for the past few months due to school and such, but over the summer I plan to do a lot more work on it. Level design is purely to test mechanics and such, nothing is really finalized.
Adventures in Pureia is developed on Gamemaker:Studio 1.4
