Kael: A Jedi on the run

Kael: A Jedi on the Run is a 2D action-puzzle platformer with a pixel art universe based on Star Wars. The story follows Kael, a young Padawan who survived Order 66 and is now pursued by the Empire's Inquisitors. Players will control Kael and navigate through dangerous ruins, stay hidden, and learn to harness the Force over time while discovering ancient Jedi mysteries beneath a foreign planet. 

The game integrates platforming with intelligent puzzle-solving and combat, drawing strong inspiration from Hollow Knight (level design and exploration), Celeste (controls and learning curve), and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order (tone and Force powers). Abilities such as shot deflection, double jump, wall jump, as well as Force-based mechanics like push, pull, and mind control, are available to solve increasingly complex puzzles
