Bubbles & Slugs an Abstract Arcade Game.
Some one was mean to you at school so you have decided to use your Slug Gun to destroy their Lettuce Garden.
Left Mouse (keep the button down instead of clicking)
- Click on Bubble to collect it
- Click on Slug to collect it
- Click Helpers to spawn Bubbles and Slugs
Right Mouse
- Click on a Chicken trap it any Bubbles you have.
- Click on a trapped Chicken will make the bubble stronger (and cost a bubble).
- Click on Left / Right Edge (Highlights Green) to Fire Slugs you have.
Once all the Lettuce has spawned and has been eaten you will progress to the next level.
NOTE: This is a JAVA Application so download the current version and install it from Oracles site if you need too.
General idea is to collect Slugs and Bubbles while waiting for Lettuce to spawn. Once the Lettuce has spawned you trap the Chickens and spawn your Slugs accordingly (till all the Lettuce has been eaten).
If you run out of Slugs or Bubbles the helpers are there to get more.
It is a small entry (that took a while to get momentum). Didn't make a start screen so the game just starts at Level #1.
Made all the Music, Pixel Art, and Code (minus libs).
Enjoy your unconventional weapons Bubbles and Slugs! :-)
