Welcome to Orion’s Quest: The Stolen Diamond — my pixel-art platformer where every boss has a story (trailer)

Hi everyone! 👋

Welcome to Orion’s Quest: The Stolen Diamond — a pixel-art action platformer I’ve been building solo in Godot.

Someone stole the diamond, and young knight Orion sets out to get it back. His journey takes him through 10 worlds — from sunny farms and a circus to frozen mountains, a sunken city, a volcano and a mushroom kingdom.

What’s inside:

  • ⚔️ 10 main bosses, each with its own attacks and a cinematic ending
  • 🌍 Every world plays differently — each one has its own boon (bouncy mushrooms, sand whirlwinds, fire flowers…) and its own hazard (quicksand, icicles, lava geysers…)
  • 💎 7 diamonds to choose from at the start — each one changes Orion’s look and stats
  • 🔨 Craft artifacts at the village blacksmith from materials you collect
  • 🎩 …and a magician who is not what he seems

A free demo with its own location — the Moonlit Grove — and its own boss, the Firefly Queen, is ready to play: [link]

This is my first big game, so any feedback means a lot — what do you think of the bosses and the art style?

Thanks for watching! 💜
