My entry for this theme; I took two games that shouldn't work together, Flappy Bird and Ikaruga, and mashed them up!

For those who don't know:

Flappy Bird is a game where you are constantly falling, and have to fly through 'gates' by constantly tapping up.

Ikaruga is a shoot 'em up with a unique mechanic where you can absorb bullets that are the same colour as your ship, and switch between colours at any time.

As with all of my Ludum Dare entries, all assets were made by me during the compo, and I'll be uploading them for general reuse on Open Game Art at some point, because why waste assets, right?

Tools Used

Unity for all the hard lifting engine work

Photoshop Elements for the 2D stuffs

Blender for the 3D stuffs

BFXR & Bosca Ceoil for the audio stuffs

Font used: Xolonium under the Open Font Licence

Controls


Q or Left Mouse Button - shoot

Space Bar - 'flap'

E or Right Mouse Button - change colour

I haven't tested, but it should work fine with a controller - let me know how that goes for you in the comments below!
