A vertical-scrolling shooter where collecting ammo makes you grow larger, and thus more vulnerable.
Only had just over a day to work on this, but pretty happy with how the game-feel turned out. Big thanks to https://twitter.com/mexicanopiumdog for the wonderful meaty sound effects!
Regrettably, the other levels didn't make it into the LD build. Named because of the similarities to Downwell and because of how sick I've been feeling after crunching to make it happen!
Coo mechanics! I at first didn't realise you could shoot, so it would have been nice to have some kind of in-game indication of that.
The gun shooting and hitting are super meaty and thumps and feels great.
The movement of the ship could perhaps be a bit more nuanced, so I can move small increments and not be definitely doomed because I can't move into a smaller gap because I have no finer controls.
What is the shoot button?... It's worth mentioning the controls here somewhere. Overall I like the graphics and the mechanics, and the interesting addition of growing larger.
