How to Play
The robots are coming for your mainframe! They start at the arena's outer doors and move inwards. Kill the enemies before they reach your mainframe.
As an Arsenal Toy, you have the option to Shoot, to Dash, or to Summon! Dashing and Shooting take from your Energy Bar, so to be most effective, you should Summon!
#### Summon?
You summon helpers to help protect your mainframe! Kill enemies to get Resources! Use those resources to summon Allies!
#### Allies
* Option Ship - Will hover around you and protect you for 15 seconds! Can't be killed, won't last forever either.
* Scuttle Square - A ranged attack enemy that will track down your opponents across the arena!
* Stabby Square - A melee type enemy that will rush your opponents down! Cheap, but lack of range means they aren't as effective.
* Turret Sentry - A stationary turret that will protect a single space with gusto! Very good for single areas, but can't defend themselves from groups well.
#### Other Summons
You can use resources to either heal yourself or your Mainframe!
How to Win
Defeat all of the waves without your player or your Mainframe dying!

But camera controls are really messed up. Thankfully, you do can spam towers)
I gotta agree with others about the camera, something about it feels a little off about it. I'd suggest having the option to invert the vertical camera control. Another thing is I wish there was some kind of reaction animation and sound effect to getting struck by those enemies.
Those aren't damning criticisms at all, I absolutely love this game. Ya'll have a very competently put together third person shooter here, and in a very short amount of time. That's really impressive! :thumbsup:
that, and the inverted vertical looky, are the only downsides I can see for a jam game. Very well done!
Music and art style was on point, gameplay felt pretty good.
The camera was a bit wonky, but workable... that being said, inverted Y is the bane of my existence!
I think a few QOL things like mouse-look rather than WSAD to face char, option to have inverted Y or not, and a bit of a tutorial at the start would have done wonders but understandable to not get it done in the time-frame.
I had a heap of fun playing though, and loved the music and voice overs.
