Ludum Dare #33compo
Eat Ships and Thrive
Drifting through the empty void of space would be enough to make any amalgamation of putrid pulsating flesh cranky. Especially with all these ships around - looks like some civilisation or other is upset about your festering appendage oozing all over their doorstep.
It's alright. You have an iron stomach for things like this.
WHAT?
* You are an abomination of adjective-less description.
* A load of ships are flying around your personal space.
* Destroy them.
* Eat the remains.
* Watch out for asteroids!
* Try to get as high a score as possible!
HOW?
* Use the mouse to aim your creature
* Move with WASD or the arrow keys.
* Shoot using SPACE BAR or the LEFT MOUSE BUTTON. Each shot reduces your mass slightly, so if you go spraying too wildly you'll lose a lot of shielding.
* Ships can also be destroyed by running into them.
Tools used:
* Unity3d
* Pixen for the sprites
* Audacity and Bfxr.net for sound effects
* Fonts available for personal use from dafont.com. The fonts used are:
"A Damn Mess" by Spork Thug Typography (http://www.dafont.com/a-damn-mess.font)
"Cacavia01" by Ward Zwart (http://www.dafont.com/cacavia01.font)
This is my first real game using Unity, and I'm really happy with it considering. Didn't have time to do music, but I guess the silence might lend it an eerie atmosphere so I'm not torn up about it.

The controls were annoying at 1st but when I gave it a chance it gave it a different feel that was playable.
