The Unconventional Weapon would be a Magnet Gun! And when I decided to name the game MagGunner, it sounded a little like MacGuyver which instantly flooded my mind with 80s nostalgia. Hence it was really fun making the music and visuals in a retro-futurist 80s sci-fi theme.
The collisions are a bit glitchy but I've tested it extensively and the 7 levels I came up with are playable until the end. i did my best to have the levels progressing in difficulty so that you learn the mechanic of the MagGun (thanks, Portal!)
The game is WINDOWS standalone .exe, because I can't afford the HTML5 plugin for GameMaker, but the download is only a quick 5.4 MB anyway.
I hope you like it!
