A downloadable game for Windows

Barry looks back on his years, remembering his service during the Seven Year's War. Guide the young lad through bloody and action packed battles, and pay back to the French what they took from you.

Based on the character by William Thackeray from "The Luck of Barry Lyndon", with inspiration from the movie "Barry Lyndon".

--- Post Jam Update! ---
The game has been updated with fixes to enemy AI, combat, rendering...
To play the original jam version, download "Barry's Revenge - Original Jam Build"

Changes:
- reworked sprite batching with atlasing, should improve performance in certain levels
- enemies are now less likely to get stuck on walls
- enemies won't immediately shoot into the wrong direction, but turn first towards the player
- enabled picking up empty weapons by right clicking them when near
- added a "Fortnite" crosshair to help avoid shooting bushes
- increased crosshair thickness and contrast to help it stand out better
- increased the likelyhood of mayhem ;)
- prolly something else too but i don't remember

Enjoy!

Big thank you! :)

This seems to mostly be an issue on NVIDIA cards (though not all), I'll need to look more into it...
