Gestalt
A downloadable game for Windows
IMPORTANT: If you get an error, install OpenAL using oalinst.exe provided in the zip (even though I've included necessary .dll files OpenAL seems to keep causing problems unless you install it specifically on your machine)
A (Rather Rant-y) Introduction
I wanted to make a danmaku (bullet hell) game, but thought what if instead of a hellish barrage of bullets to dodge
- the player has to seek out the bullets actively and
- the bullets get less frequent and randomly spawn to add to the difficulty...
So here it is! As the bullets are blue, I decided to call them 'hydrocarbons' ... it'd make sense that they're flaming blue then, cuz they're literally falling down from the sky at such speeds - friction and air resistance do exist. ;)
Winning condition:
If you collect 100 bullets in under 4 min.s you win, else you lose.
Update : Added on-screen timer for convenience.
P.S.:
I'm not much of an artist so the design is pretty simple (and uses mostly free assets), and this is my first time participating in a game jam so if you played my game, thanks a lot and I hope it wasn't too bad.
