Which theme was used for the game, and in what way?
Wave survival game, where you are stranded on a spaceship, with hordes of aliens attacking. You must use combine your drone configurations to use his tools to defend yourself. Press F1 for ingame help :). Didnt have the time I thought I would have, this game is only a percent of what I wanted to do, but it was still lots of fun to build it, hope you guys have half the fun I had developing it. Also you can resize the screen, but I advise you to not, I didnt have much time to check for bugs, and resizing it may disconfigure the HUD :/

Really cool game, I love the concept of mixing different turret styles depending on the situations. Keep up the good work!
Thanks bro, I really apreciate the feedback. Maybe someday I'll finish this project, I even have an story for it.
I played it and it wasn't until I actually died and came back to give a review that I saw the text saying press F1 for help and then saw the crafting side of things. Fun little top down shooter. The green bugs seemed to heal me when they exploded? I'm not entirely sure, but something was healing me when I was in the middle of big groups of exploding dudes. Nice little game.
Yes the green ones were suposed to heal anyone in their explosion radius, boy I hope I had more time to build a proper tutorial :T thank you for the feedback, since this was my first jam I hope on the next I get to fix all of those problems
While I never passed wave 3 it was really fun to test the different weapons. My favorite is the electric bolt. That would be really cool to propagate the eletricity effect to the monsters that are near each others. The idea of shooting through a drone is fun.
Oh boy I didnt realize that it was that hard, that's always a fault in my games :T. That was the original ideia for the bolt but I havent the time to polish the weapons, I didnt even balance then, what you saw there was almost the same as the first prototype :T. But I will further polish this game, you can expect the bolt to work properly and a proper balance for the game difficulty. Really apreciate the feedback :)
Nicely done! The offset of the drone is a little disorienting though.
I tried too hard to make it look good and forget about making it good to play ha, I have a list of things to fix in this project, just for me, this one will go to the list. Thanks for the feedback :)
