Oh, no!
The intership programmer made a build and forgot to exit from some _while(true)_. Process is generating a lot of memory allocs!!! That is too much garbage to collect. Every other system would stuck, but...
YOUR GARBAGE COLLECTOR HAS THE AWESOME BERSERK MODE!!!
As a Garbage Collector controller you must to avoid memory garbage reach the core of the system.
CONTROLS
- A / D or Left / Right Arrow: rotate your weapon- Enter or Space: shot
OVERCLOCKING SYSTEM
- Cache (life): how many memory can take the core before stuck the application.- Number of cores (weapons): every core is a new weapon agains the memory garbage.
- Core speed (turn speed): it’s the turn speed of your weapons.
- Slot size (weapon damage & bullet size): your bullets are slots that free some of the garbage.
- Cleaning time (reload time): Every time you shot a slot, you need some time to free some space for another slots.
TIPS
- Overclock the cleaning time at the first levels, so you can fire faster.- Overclock the slot size as soon you see bigger objects (more than 3 sides polygones).
- Overclock the number of cores or core speed when you see too much objects.
- Overclock the cache if you’ve allocated too much objects in memory.
KEY FEATURES
- Avoid your system get stuck!- Overclock your GC in order to clean more and more garbage!
- Disrespect that fking programmer! (well... is not a game feature, but you can do it in your house)
- And... that is all. What do you expect? Last week I participated in another game jam and my brain is stuck xD
