Circle vs. Squares

In this game you're the only thing that isn't a square. Needless to say they're all out to get you.

Arcade - Defeat enough henchsquares to lure out the boss. He won't go down so easily... low centre of gravity.
Endless - A never-ending swarm of enemies. Last as long as you can for a high score.

ASDW - Move
Arrow keys - Shoot (press two at once for diagonal shots)
Z - Move on / retry etc. when prompted
P - Toggle sound

I worked solo on this but it uses some code from another one of my games and as a result turned out quite similar. For this reason and for some uncertainties towards the sounds used (although they are all royalty free, I didn't record them) it has been submitted to the 72 hour Jam with the relaxed rules.

what engine you used for this one?, it's intense

The minimalism theme helped with that. Last game I put this many enemies on the screen lagged, at full graphic quality, making it easier. Didn't use any engines- just a simple (in one sense of the word) flash game.

I liked how dying of different enemies ended with different end animations, but the hitboxes felt unclear because of the perspective.

This game is actually really fun and quickly gets overwhelming(in a good way). Good job! :D
