CHOSEN AS ONE OF THE TOP PICKS OF THE LOST RELIC GAMES- GAME JAM.


Check the results here.

This game was made as part of  Lost Relic Games - GAME JAM.

The theme is "Connection"

In this game, clones' movement is connected to the player.  They move exactly as the player does.

(I recommend watching the tutorial)

About:

Control the little glowing rocket and help it collect stars.  Avoid clones hitting you. Also, collect cool powerups like : Energy Shield,  Speed Boost, Time Freeze, and Mines and use them to protect the ship and destroy the clones.  You got 3 lives.

Star = 1 point; Destroy Clone Rocket = 3 points;

Controls & Keys:

  • Use left and right arrow keys to turn anti-clockwise and clockwise.  Those are the only controls!!
  • Click "Start" or press "Enter" to start the game. You can restart the game at any point by pressing "R".  Press "Escape" if you want to come back to the main screen.

Powerups:

  • Energy Shield:   It creates a shield around the rocket's body.  Stays till it is destroyed by clones or if another powerup is picked up.
  • Speed Boost: Increases the speed of the rocket temporarily for 5 seconds*.  During this phase, the points for stars double.
  • Time Freeze: Freezes Time temporarily and lets you mark the clones which get destroyed when the time unfreezes*. 
  • Mines: Automatically targets the clone rockets and shoots at them. Only three mines are available per pickup.

Lemme know which powerup you like in the comments along with your high scores!!

*You can always watch out the time bar under the score to see how long a powerup lasts for. Watch the gameplay video if the instructions are not clear. Seriously! You should!

This is a very fun concept. Controlling the clones as well gives you so many options. Great job!
