A restless spirit turns swords into wheels of destruction. Nothing is more serious than dying loves ones, betrayal, and the salvation or damnation of one's soul. That's what Spirit Sword is. 

For the BEST fullscreen experience with no black border, download the Windows version!

Made for The Very Serious Juniper Dev Game Jam. 

This game has sound FX, music, cutscenes, 5 levels, and 2 different endings. 

There is a tutorial level that shows how to play, and you can play around before starting the action, but the controls are simple: 

-WASD movement

-Left Click OR J to spin swords left (counter clockwise)

-Right Click OR K to spin swords right (clockwise)

**If your swords are hit on the back they get destroyed**

**The guards on the swords flip when spun to help protect the back**

This is my first ever game! If people enjoy this and want more, please let me know, as I would love to start my own pages and stuff for my game dev journey, which is finally beginning with this game submission!  

(p.s. this game likes aggression and fast spins, if you're having trouble collecting swords, be more aggressive)
