INFO
We started with the idea of doing a bullet hell where you are supposed to dodge instead of shoot. You had finite bullets and shooting would reduce your damage output each time. If you wasted them on trash mobs, the boss would be (nearly) impossible. After we added some graphical effects, shooting became way too fun so we scrapped the original idea and tried a few other things. We ultimately decided to shy away from the theme in favour of making the game as fun as possible.
As is tradition, we went into Ludum Dare with a lot of ambition and ended up having to cut a lot of content. We originally had four stages planned but due to time restraints we cut it down to a single stage that has a mini boss, instead of full stages with full bosses.
All-in-all, we're fairly proud of this game despite the severe lack of polish and plan to clean up the code, polish the engine, and try to make a more full game. So if you're still reading this far, consider this entry a prototype of things to come!
