General Information
"El Akelarre de Lola" is a platform video game starring Spanish singer and dancer Lola Indigo and with gameplay largely inspired by the classic Sonic the Hedgehog games. A crazy crossover between a music star and a video game series made in Lua using framework LÖVE2D as a base. By the way, the title is in Spanish and "akelarre" is a Basque word meaning "witch reunion" or "witch ritual".
This is my first ever complete video game, starting as an academic project. I recreated most of the classic Sonic physics (except slopes) from the ground up, as well as some collectibles, spikes, springs and powerups. All pixel art was done by me, but not without using other sprites I found as a base to teach myself. The game's story and settings are all about Lola Indigo, so nobody from outside her fandom will understand certain decisions such as the enemy design -nevertheless, I dare you to find out each enemy's significance.
I'm very proud of the final boss! I managed to make it very close to my ideal Sonic vs Metal Sonic battle, with very simple AI code too! The font is not the most legible, I'm aware of that, but I chose it because of how it fits the witch theme. Feel free to notify me of any other problems you find.
