Game Information

Arrow key + enter for menu WASD/arrow key + point and click movement.

Protect the star from the oncoming wave of enemy's trying to make it explode. The more enemy's hit the star, the bigger it grows, and the less space you have to work with!

Notes:

  • As im sure this is on everyone's mind, the late entry was due to technical issues with submission durring the time window.
  • As updates beyond submission are not allowed, there were game breaking bugs in the build that I was trying to submit that night.
  • As a post mordem, this was definitely a dumpster fire. At this point the only reason why i'd want to keep it up is as a painful lesson/reminder for the next game jam.

Bug Fixes (on itch.io):

  • memory leak caused by enemy bullet instances not resolving properly when leaving the viewport.
  • victory condition was about 59 minutes longer than its supposed to be (id10t error)
  • invulnerable player is invulnerable
