I’ve been working on this 2D platformer for a while now. Its not finished but hopefully you can have some fun with it in it’s current state.
You play as Boris, a hard working and devoted employee. You arrive at the office as you do on any other morning, but today is no ordinary day. During the night a space fleet from the planet Jobswerth descended on the office block and now the hallways are teeming with alien beings. I don’t know how they expect you get any work done!
Battle your way up the tower, popping aliens for points and harvesting the spawners for health. Climb as high as you can before succumbing to the alien horde.
Controls
- WAD to move and jump
- MOUSE to aim, LEFT CLICK to shoot
- ESC is pause
- E to open doors
- 1,2,3 selects the weapons
TODO:
- More Patterns (the level generator is a bit repetitive at the moment)
- More Enemies
- More Weapons
- At least local leaderboards
- Options Menu
- Fullscreen mode
- Mod support starting with the ability to add extra patterns to the generator
Known Issues:
- The launcher is a bit crappy. Windows users are having some trouble.
- If the character stops aiming at the cursor then move the cursor out of frame and then back in to reset it
- The frame rate for the particles tanks quite badly. This doesn’t affect speed of gameplay much
- The grenade guns that the enemies have cause some pretty buggy movement. I left them in because explosions are fun.
- The enemies have been known to spawn in the same spot, resulting in a huge shower of blood when they shoot each other in the face
- Semi-random crashes caused by particle and mob cleanup routines
Yeah the launcher seems to be a bit rough around the edges. If the launcher won’t download, just download the zip instead and tell me which OS you are on. If you follow the instructions in the README then hopefully the launcher will see the files and act like the game is up to date.
Hopefully the above problem is fixed. Let me know if this is not the case.
