Game Design Document

🧠 Concept 🧠

The game idea comes from the literal meaning of the theme "You Are The Weapon" and my desire to make a Fodian game.
I choose a Foil sword because of its ability to bend and the meaning of the word "Foiled : prevent from succeeding" matching very well with the Fodian game genre.

🎮 Gameplay 🎮

You control a foil sword that can be bent and released to fling in the opposite direction. Depending on the surface toughness you need more or less speed to stab into as well as an angle matching closely your velocity shown with the triangle going from red🔴 to green🟢.

In order of diffitulty Dirt🟫 < Wood 🪵< Ice🧊.
It is not possible to stab Stone🪨.
When over dirt🟫 you can stab🗡️ the ground without speed by standing straight , indicated by the downward arrows⬇️ turning from yellow🟡 to green🟢

Good luck !
