TIP: THINK OF MOVEMENT AS MORE GLIDING THAN ACTIVE KEY PRESSING, WITH ONLY A SLIGHT TAP IF YOU'RE HOLDING IT DOWN YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG, DO ARROW KEY IN OPPOSITE DIRECTION TO STOP

For some reason at the last minute, full screen broke the UI, or at least wide-screen did.

My first game jam with an engine I'm not too familiar with.

I wanted to do a game jam this badly, however I did not like the selected theme, this game was made a bit late as I had scrapped the original idea I had, involving abduction, this was scrapped due to not being sure how to program some AI. I kept this demo level in the bonus levels, merely to showcase what I had done.

Definitely not one of the better games of the jam, the graphics are a bit ugly, too.

The physics of the UFO control are still a bit wonky. You gotta trace the stencil to make a crop circle.

Tools used

I used Modplug Tracker and Greasemonkey's atrk-bu.py script for music.

Audacity distortion of a sound I made with my mouth for the UFO's flatten sound effect.

Unity Engine using C# scripting.

pikselapp.com for the art.
