Introducing... The Valiant Vessel!

Virulent Vessels
A downloadable game for Windows

3 days until Virulent Vessels' release... No more enemy of the day from here on out! For today's showcase, we'll be going over our second playable character...

The Valiant Vessel! Using their character specific action will cause them to enter a charge state. From here, press one of the directional buttons and you'll do a dash in that direction, and they won't stop until they hit an enemy or a wall, killing most foes in just one hit. The dash has great offensive and defensive capabilities, but it isn't a win button. Remember, each character specific ability costs a letter to use, which acts as 1/2 of a hit point. Besides that, the dash will not ignore enemy abilities. For example, dashing into Luca in their monster form will still cause you to take damage, so take into consideration an enemy's abilities before deciding to dash into them. Lastly, when playing as the Valiant Vessel, they will have their very own Jazz soundtrack, replacing each song in the game with a jazzier tune. 

Play as the Valiant Vessel this August 14th in VIRULENT VESSELS, THE LEGEND OF GOBBLEDYGUNK!
