Based on the theme of "The more you have, the worse it is", this game is about triangles making each other explode.
Go figure.
Lead Arrow is a top-down arcade shooter about managing ammo supplies and movement speed while avoiding enemies.
The player has a number of arrows, which are fired at enemies to destroy them, and gain more arrows. Each arrow the player is holding decreases their speed, but running out of arrows or colliding with an enemy will cause you to explode.
- LEFT MOUSE: Hold and release to fire a single arrow. Very short range.
- RIGHT MOUSE: Hold and release fire all arrows. Range depends on how many arrows are fired, and will leave one left.
When making this, I reused and improved some basic shape drawing and view scaling code from older projects.
