A 2d side scrolling platformer, where you play as a hero who uses nothing but his famous shield, 'The argent bulwark'. Shield slam your foes, block and reflect projectiles, use your shield to smash through walls and to do a dive bombs.

The platformer itself is a combat orientated puzzle game. You must use some of your obstacles (enemies / traps) to solve the level. For an example, stun a skeleton and push him onto a pressure pad so you can progress. A dart trap that may be shooting in 5 second intervals, might have to be used to your advantage, reflect the darts to snipe other enemies, or to reach objects out of your reach.

As you progress through levels you unlock new abilities which will both help the player through gameplay, and be essential to new puzzles. New ability: Shield hop! 'Take your shield up high and slam it on your foes head, launching yourself from his head'
