This is our first Jam and actually a first game out in the world!

Elvira Sichevaia - programming
We were targeting both themes, the Growing heap of crystals and Two Button controls.
How to play: Shoot the crystals with the color matching the TEXT on the crystal, otherwise the security system will go off and you are busted! Don’t let the crystals get too close to you either, any touch - and you are done!
Here is an example: if you see “RED” on a green crystal with blue letters - you need to shoot with red gun.
There is a story behind this game!
The biggest and most expensive crystals in the world are grown here, on the factory from where they go to an unbreakable vault. Only the most ingenious thief can break in - and that’s you. But getting inside was the easiest part of your plan. So far, nobody was able to carry out the crystals without being noticed! Well, you were smart and got yourself a teleportation gun. It’s ray, when matching the crystal color, could send it far away before, but after the last burglary attempt the security has been significantly enhanced - the vault now has a protection field, which alters the visible crystal color. But nothing is impossible! You managed to get an augmented reality glasses, which are able to identify the real crystal color. This is one of the first prototypes, still under development. They are not able to show you the correct color. Instead, the color is indicated with text.
Have fun!
