Greetings. This was my entry for the short story contest. Here is a brief overview of the features...
  • Use hallucinations to attack. Damage is dealt with scarabs.
  • Four different relics and consume provide 5 different ways of attacking and devising strategies.
  • Each area contains at least one hidden item, some of which are obtainable only after completing some sort of puzzle. There are 6 gems and 4 relics to collect. Collecting them all offers an alternate ending.
  • Boss battles with randomized attack patterns.
  • A wide array of music to provide ambience.
  • An omnipresent storyline.

Storyline
The primeval gods, exasperated by the incessant turmoil on earth, have come to the conclusion that it would be best to eradicate mankind. One god, however, still thinks there is hope for them and ventures into their realm as a mortal to prove his brethren wrong.

Abilities, relics and gems
  • Focus: Used in menu. Recharges energy.
  • Consume: Used in menu. Deals half of base damage. Recharges your health after 8 hits (indicated by gas) and cancels the effects of explosions.
  • Scepter of Balthazar: Used in menu. Deals three times base damage.
  • Icon of Lumina: Used in menu. Freezes enemy in place temporarily. Deals twice base damage.
  • Crown of Altheus: Used in menu. Requires no energy to attack. Deals base damage.
  • Shield of Korozan: Used in menu. Increases shields permanently. Deals twice base damage.
  • Red Gem: Passive. Increases health by 5%.
  • Blue Gem: Passive. Increases energy by 2.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Used : " [img=https://i.imgur.com/gpOjTuD.jpeg] "

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
