OBJECTIVE

You are stuck in a region of space overrun by enemies. Luckily, your trusty ship can gather parts and energy from your opponents to reconfigure itself in different ways and recover its armor. Try to survive and reach a tier 5 ship!

Every 10 seconds, if you have enough parts, your ship will reconfigure into a new design, refilling your health and giving you new weapons. Blast enemies to earn parts and stay alive.

- W/A/S/D or Arrow Keys: Move your ship around

ABOUT DEVELOPMENT
----------------
Our goal for this LD was to do an action game involving some sort of shooting with varied weapons. Our last entry in LD33 (Massacre Monday) was a melee action game, so we wanted to try something a bit different in the same genre. We struggled a bit with coming up with an idea that fit the theme, so we weren't quite sure where to go with the game for a little while. That left us with a bit less time than we would have liked, but we did manage to finish the core of the game's design and do some polish, which is always a win.

There are still a couple of minor bugs or crashes that pop up every now and then that we're trying to track down, so any bug reports in the comments are awesome.

All the art, design, sound effects,and code for this game were created during the 72 hour jam period. The engine is written in Haxe, using OpenFL/HaxeFlixel. All the art was made using mosly Pixen and Photoshop, or procedurally generated in-game. Sound effects were made with bfxr.
