The Ghost of the Past is an platformer game that is based on the the Prince of Persia 2008. The fate of the two main characters are linked together and both together are needed to progress the story. There are places where the prince can't reach but the princess can open paths for him in some places the princess cant reach so the prince has to make way for her.

This is the Submission to the GMTK 2021 game jam Themed JOINED TOGETHER, and both the character are connected together by the fate. Let's see what the fate has in hold for them.

Well I noticed that after one level the game just bug. So it might be only solved post jam.

This is going to be an unofficial Prince of Persia 2008.

As the story plot was too damn big for me. I got confused about what to put in the jam version. There were lots of dropped out ideas that you would see but it was hard for me to put all of them in the jam version as there were already many unfinished ideas. 

The game is unpolished and it may get stuck after a certain level... But after the jam ends it'll go through major changes. If you are a POP fan be sure to check this out. 

A legend awaits.
