That Traitorous Sidekick

You could have been a classic ally who has sworn to protect the heroine at all cost. You kind of did. But you also made a pact with her nemesis.

The job?

Annoy her by giving her CONSTANT. UNSOLICITED. USELESS. ADVICE.

• It's only in English. Sorry.
• Displayed buttons are those of Xbox, but all gamepads should work.
• Keyboard also works if you press the letter corresponding to the Xbox face buttons (yes why, but why not).

Made for the GMTK Game Jam 2023. The theme was: roles reversed.

The initial pitch/concept was to play (the annoying) Navi from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. But what the N64 game did not tell you back then, it's that Navi made a deal with Ganondorf to annoy Link all along his quest. So while Link is doing Ocarina of Time things, Navi is playing a sort of scoring Devil May Cry stylish rank game based on Link's patience and despair.
