Tuck and Rolo

A game about being a cool skeleton (Tuck), collecting mushrooms, and tackling villains, all with the help of your fire-spitting, mostly-loyal flying friend (Rolo). Made for the PICO-8 fantasy console. 

Tuck and Rolo is a "spooky" action platformer with a scoring system that rewards exploration and survival over speed -- make good use of your shield if you hope to traverse the dangers of the game’s one long level. 

Should you succeed, go for the high score in the repeatable NG+ mode. But only the truly adventurous will find all 9 Secret Shrooms...
