BARbarian

Welcome, warrior! Yep, I'm talking to YOU! You may not carry a battleaxe and hack and slash your way through life literally, but you are a warrior, I can see it in you. You battle all sorts of things: maybe it's debt, irresistible bad-for-you foods, or not telling someone who made you angry how you feel. And you never give up, doing it day after day, just like a true warrior!

Even if you don't slice and dice your way through dungeons on a regular basis, your experience points are just as valid, and your exploits are just as worthy of sharing. If you heed the call of the BARbarian, that's what you'll be doing: sharing your exploits with the world!

About the game

BARbarian is all about creating stuff with your experiences! Whether it's a poem, a piece of art, a literal mixed drink, or a game like this, or even an impassioned speech! It's all valid and awesome! 

The Hyper 1 HOUR Game Jam

This game was created for the HYPER 1 HOUR Game Jam, which means I literally made it in an hour! WHEW! But this was my second Hyper Game Jam and I highly encourage you to check them out 🧡 They're every Friday at 6pm eastern and Lýz livestreams them, including the theme reveal. She's super fun and encouraging and awesome!

And you can watch Lýz create something with BARbarian below!

Is this really a game though? 

Sure!

I KNOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW I made this in one hour, okay? 🤣
