Hail, Adventurer! Master Skeletor has ruled over this decrepit dungeon for 1,000 years and nary a prisoner has escaped. The evil mastermind has ruled with a bony fist, supported by his skeletal minions. Adventurers often arrive to seek fame in challenging the lord of the dungeon and setting the prisoners free, but none have succeeded.
However, our hero Boris Bones is tired of the dampness of this cave. Tired by the constant seiges. Tired of the non-existent pay... just all over tired of this life! Or, well. Life so to speak. Its time he broke out of this evil lair once and for all, and felt the sun on his boney face!
The Peaceful Pursuit of Boris Bones was created for a Mintbean Hiring Hackathon, running from August 24th - August 30th, that challenged us to create a 2D game utilizing JavaScript. Mintbean is a developers' collective that provides support and mentorship for professional software develops within the industry. They've hosted 150+ Hackathons that helps new developers show off their skills and get connected with companies looking for new talent.
