Slash, Bash, & Bowie
Slash, Bash, and Bowie is a fast-paced, pixelated action-adventure inspired by classic Zelda dungeons with a comedic twist.
Switch between three quirky heroes — Slash (sword), Bash (hammer), and Bowie (bow) — each with their own unique combat mechanics designed to defeat various enemies.
Descend deeper into the lair by fighting your way through enemies and solving puzzles to reach the Boss enemy. Use only your mouse to move, attack, and swap between characters.
🔧 Features:
- 💥 Weapon-based switching: Each hero has their own attack style and strengths.
- 🧠 Puzzles + combat: Slice enemies with your sword, break enemy armor with your hammer, and hit ranged enemies with your bow. Encounter puzzles with a comedic twist on the dungeon crawler genre.
- 🎯 Made for game jam: Built in under a week as a creative twist on classic dungeon-crawlers and using inputs other than the keyboard to play.
- 🎮 Controls: Use only your mouse. The character follows your mouse cursor. Press the left mouse button to attack, right mouse button to swich weapons, and scroll-wheel to rotate weapon.
Whether you're swinging wildly, breaking everything in sight, or launching pixel arrows across the room — Slash, Bash, and Bowie are here to complete their mission in quirky fashion.

Yay I got to the end of the game! Ahaha the “final boss” was such a wholesome moment! I actually enjoyed this game mechanic getting to switch between the weapons and attacking. The attack detection was somewhat tricky to keep distance since it would catch taking damage too, but I made it work. I enjoyed the quirky weapon characters and their dynamic together. And great theme music to this dungeon! Great job on this game jam!!! I really enjoyed it!
Glad you liked it! Thank you for playing and the feedback!
