Project Overview

        Explore the depths of a polluted sea as a cybernetic knight equipped with an oil-blasting laser gun. Clean up environmental disasters, navigate platforming challenges, and restore life to the ocean—one blast at a time.

        Oil Knight is a 2D platformer created in Godot 4 for Mini Game Jam under the theme “Ocean.” You play as a deep-sea knight tasked with restoring the ocean from deadly oil spills. Armed with a pressurized oil laser, you explore underwater caverns, dodge sea creatures, and purify contaminated areas in this pixel-art platformer.
