Spartan Fruits places you in a 2D action course where warrior fruits advance among traps, chests and platforms to reach the exit of each stage. From the first moments, you progress by running, jumping and reading the terrain to avoid getting stuck. A ledge that is too high, a passage cut by a void or a poorly placed enemy can interrupt your momentum, and that is where the game becomes interesting. You must collect chests filled with coins to unlock rewards and continue to the next levels, not forgetting gems, which are useful to obtain new fruit varieties. A pleasant tension between speed and caution quickly appears, because a poorly calculated trajectory immediately slows you down, whereas a good sequence allows you to clear a section smoothly. During play, the saber truly changes the way you move. You can throw it to latch on and swing, which turns some passages into small acrobatic sequences where you must time your movement correctly. In other situations, you use it to strike in front of you and clear the way before resuming progress. This alternation between movement, attack and suspension gives depth to each screen, because the same obstacle is not always overcome in the same way. Sometimes you must insist on exploration to find a chest before continuing, sometimes it is better to secure a risky jump and then return to a detour full of gems. You thus advance from decision to decision, with a constant desire to improve your run and discover what the next level holds. Enjoy!
Use the WASD or arrow keys to move and to jump, hold F to throw he sword upward to grapple and swing across gaps, press G for quick slash attack and hold G to throw the sword forward to attack at range.
