How does your game fit the theme?
It's a top-down shooter, but the roles are reversed in that you are trying to get hit instead of trying to hit the opponent.

Awesome job! It's such a bummer your files got deleted, I had something similar happen last year. But I went to catch the signal 2 and it was a total blast! I really like the idea of trying to get hit instead of avoid it. Especially because the shots bounce so much it is hard to avoid hitting the other person. I am not sure I have ever seen a game with these mechanics and I love it. We had a great time playing it and I hope other give it a try too.
Really nicely done, great game.
