Strikers 1940-ish
A downloadable game for Windows
This game was submitted for Bullet Hell Jam 2022.
Note: This has been hastily implemented due to time constraints, and many components which I had intended to include (such as power-ups, life counters, and even a simple scoring system) have yet to be implemented.
Thus, even by the standards of a proof-of-concept-demo, this game is very, very, VERY incomplete.
Plot:
I'll think of it, when I come to it.
Gameplay:
Per the trademark definition of the "bullet hell" genre, the player's objective is simply to shoot at anything that moves, whilst avoiding an entourage of incoming projectiles.
Controls:
arrow keys | movement |
space bar | fire weapons |
escape | quit |
Credits:
