As you are aware from the last post development as been put on hold but that game i created for the game jam is finished I'm just waiting for Sunday to come around so i can release it on itch.io. It is a game about swapping gravity and avoiding spikes to reach the objective.
But back to moonshot plan i have been working on a pet for the player since the player can only shoot left and right i created something that will hit the targets you can't reach. There might even be some levels where you have to take control of the drone to carry out certain objectives.
I created him myself i might add some animation to him at some point.
The drone fires out bullets dealing some damage to the enemies. For now he can just damage them and an impact effect will play. Soon i will be adding sound effects to him.
This was a picture of him killing an enemy.
So that he isn't overpowered i have reduced his damage and fire rate.
At some point in the future i will be introducing some more enemy types that are more of a threat to the player.
I'm thinking of putting the source code for the drone on itch.io tell me what you think below.
