2D Turn based life rescue game.
A star is going supernova which will wipe out all life nearby. 4 AI life arks travel the stars and take on board the doomed life forms. After 8 turns the star goes supernova and the Arks which have the highest life scores win.
Each Ark has 4 slots. Life comes in 9 types.

Score +2 for alien types that either match or are sequential in adjacent storage slots to the right of it; non-matching neighbors score -1. Empty slots do not count.

Coded in C++ using openframeworks entirely during the compo, comes with 20 mins of music I made during the compo. Pads and sequenced flutes, Ableton Live 11, 2d key art made using Microsoft Image Creator during the compo, over 900 text based alien life entries written during the compo.

Source code and all assets included within the zip file.

Enjoy have fun, love you all
Rod
