Welp... ya see, what had happened was... Lol, the imagery is based off of alien symbols. Didn't quite hit my mark on getting art done, so it's pretty bare bones.

Thanks! Yeah, I see how you could get that from the visuals lol.  I was planning on having a bunch more symbols as enemy types to represent characters of an alien alphabet, but time ran too short. Glad ya liked it!

This game was fun to play and not super difficult from the start - great job!! 

The control layout was a bit weird for me, WASD seems more common, but got used to it! 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I wanted to make something easy to pickup with a simple objective.

Great work man! We all start somewhere and this is great work for your first ever finished project. You should be proud of yourself!

Developer

Much appreciated feedback! I've done art and animations for game projects, but this year I wanna buckle down and finally tackle coding. I learned a lot/ a lot finally clicked with me on why the bones of coding are what they are. I'm pretty excited to build this game from the ground up knowing what I know now without a time limit. Excited to do more of these jams this year!

This is the first time I've ever coded a "finished" project. Please don't yell at me or I'll cry :)
