After multiple failed attempts, Something was finally conceived. It's not perfect, but at long last The Creator's will can be realized in a finalized state.

From Nothing is a game about traversing a wasteland made from abandoned Godot projects as an incomplete character. Survive the onslaught of self-proclaimed "Heroes" who see your imperfections as a blight on existence itself, while trying to make some allies and discover yourself along the way. It won't be easy, but the sooner you can work up the courage to break out of the mental cage and fight for what's right, the closer you'll be to your destiny.

Made for the 2026 Bad Ideas Game Jam! The theme of the Jam was "outside the box", so this game utilizes outside the box thinking to have the majority of its assets come from either itch bundles or random unpolished sprites from projects that were never finished. The theme is also embraced through the game's narrative theme of breaking out of the mental cages (or boxes) that we put ourselves in when we're too afraid to take a risk and get a project past the finish line.

Cool, but some bugs, like dying in the mage section causes you to respawn before it starts, without the barriers, also i got stuck behind the concept pile for Zulie when I got hit while interacting

this was so great! i rolled credits on it (and got emotional at the end) and was glad i did. i got briefly stuck at the mage fight before i realized i just needed to run to the end of that little gauntlet, but other than that i felt like the difficulty was nicely balanced, just tricky enough.

really liked how you interwove all of these disparate ideas into a cohesive narrative, nice work :)

Thanks for checking it out!
