This game is a platformer. The unconventional weapon is a freeze ray that can only incapacitate but not kill. In order to proceed through the game you’ll need to freeze enemies so you can jump on them to reach places you otherwise couldn’t.
The sounds are public domain and a few I made myself so I’ve opted out of the sound rating.
Controls:
WASD or arrow keys to move and jump Left click on mouse to fire freeze ray towards cursor M to turn off music
The coolest thing about this game is the level design. The difficulty ramps up quickly as you go through the game, until you're carefully positioning groups of enemies so that you can jump onto one just before the other melts. It's not an easy game, but that's part of the draw. And of course, it's a perfect fit for the theme.
This game was quite fun! I was actually compelled to play through the whole game which isn't all that common with LD games. :)
Although the controls were a little bit floaty, they felt precise enough for a hardcore platformer like this. However, once I discovered that you can keep re-freezing enemies while you keep on standing on them, the game got a little too easy.
Nice idea and fun game. Pretty cool (no pun intended) freezing mechanic, though it would have been nice to use it for more than just jumping. Say, blocking projectiles or preventing a trap from moving. Still, limited dev time and all that of course.
