Overambitions, over scoped, an exercise in hubris, a lesson in humility. My First ever game! for my first ever game. Made with love from scratch in 14 days. No assets, art or audio.
How to Play:
Move > Aim > Shoot > Dash > Collect > Shop
WASD to move | Mouse to Aim |
Left Mouse to Shoot | Spacebar (hold for charge up) = Dodge
In Shop W / S to select | Spacebar (long press) to Buy | E to ready | Q to lock | R to Re-roll
------- Better With Gamepad ------
Left stick = Move | Right Stick = Aim
Left Shoulder (hold for charge up) = Dodge | Right Shoulder = Shoot
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Shop
D-pad to select | " A "(long press) to Buy | "X" to ready | "Y" to lock | "B" Re-Roll
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I did a terrible job of explaining the "dash" so I made a little video of the dash, hold and aim.
Your dash direction is the movement input, you can charge and aim your dash.
Tips:
60s per round, collect green orbs, spend to buy upgrades, die, learn, repeat.
Friendly fire goes both ways; getting the enemy to kill their friends works well
The Dash is your friend
