Post your highest level in the comments! Curious to see how far you guys can get :)
Bodyguard is an entry in the ludum dare 46 compo. All assets and code written by me in 48 hours.
You are the bodyguard and you must ensure the VIP stays alive by killing any would-be assassins. You'll receive radio communications to help you pin down which of the civilians is really an assassin.
Once you've found the assassin, take your shot before they have a chance to kill the VIP!
Play progressively harder levels with more and more civilians but try not to shoot any innocent bystanders, they won't like that very much.
There are some mechanics people don't tend to notice from short play sessions:
* After 35 seconds the assassin can stab the VIP
* If someone just walks through the VIP past 35 seconds, they probably aren't the assassin
* If you hear a sound and the screen shakes, the assassin tried to stab the VIP but failed. He's probably still close by!
* After 120 seconds the assassin will aggressively seek out the VIP
* Take a warning shot to stop the civilians for a second!
