Calamari Chaos

by cakesauce

You are a squid fighting evil sharks. Use your starfish throwing stars, eye lazers, and urchin bombs.

Built in 26 hours. (over 2 days).

Tools: Unity3d, bxfr, Sketch, Photoshop

Unity Plugins: 2d Toolkit, Particle Playground, TemeranMessenger

2 guys. Stam and Steve. Stam learned Unity on Friday night before the theme announcement. Steve has been working in Unity for 6 months.

We got owned by physics, nested colliders, Quaternions and burned about 4 hours on these subjects that we're clearly unqualified to work with.

This was our first jam and was a blast!

A solid entry with nice graphics and sound effects. A little on the easy side though.

Great sounds effects, the game was super easy, would have loved to see a bit more progression. I really enjoyed the special abilities. This is a very well done game!

It reminds me of an old school Atari style gameplay, which is sure nice. It has a unique charm to it. Would be even better if there were more difficult challenges but I liked it overall.

Very retro :) Abit difficult to play on a notebook with no mouse, but still fun :)

Nice game and really liked the squid design, weapons felt nice and varied as well. Would have liked more variety of enemies though and for the game to get harder as you went along. Just had to stay in one place and shoot.

Nice game. Sadly it got boring pretty quickly because it was way too easy. Great work for your first entry though!
