Random Access Aliens

This game is from the old Ludum Dare platform. You can try viewing the original page on Web Archive

Oh no the alien drones are attacking earth! They even destroyed all of our firearms and melee weapons! What could we possibly do to stop them?!

Use our good ol' grenades, of course!

This is a terminal turn based game that I did with my own engine (specifically made for Ludum Dare!). Your goal is to survive as long as you can! Every 10 turns new alien drones will spawn and you will find a new grenade/heal 1hp.

map.txt is the map. You can edit if you want - just remember that alien spawn positions are hard coded (I really wanted to make it not so it would be easy to change the map but I had to rush everything in the end).

there is also .score file that is keeping the score. But do you really want to cheat? :P

Controls:

W, A, S, D - walk or or aim

Spacebar - change between walking and aiming

Enter - throw grenade or end turn

Escape or Q - quit game (score will not be recorded)

Legend:

@ - player

A - Strong alien drone

a - damaged alien drone

_ - killed alien drone

- wall (drones can fly over them!)


X - place where are you aiming

o - thrown grenade

* - explosion

! - place where alien drones spawn

P.S. PLEASE RUN THE GAME FROM A DIRECTORY IT'S AT!

P.S.S. If somebody wants an OS X version just drop a comment below, I'll see what I can do.
