Sun Beam by BadPaul34

[raw]
made by BadPaul34 for LD32 (JAM)
Did you ever see a Vampire Wizard fighting Zombies with the power of the sun??

Now Yes !

Let's introduce you Sun Beam !

Hold your mouse button to rise the sun. Turn your mouse around the center of your screen to orientate the light.

You spend some mana when the day is up. Collect some mana blobs to get back some power.

Hords of zombies rush on you. Make them burn with the sun light before they eat you.
You're a tasty burger for them.

But be careful... The vampire you are can't stay in the day light for long.

ATTENTION: The webGL version includes some graphic bugs. (weird sprite stretching) If you want to enjoy the pure awesome beauty of the game art, please download the Windows version.

This was a rather interesting game, but I did run into a bug where WASD wasn't working after a short time starting the game. I found that the arrow keys didn't run into this issue.

Such a funny idea, and nice art style, but a 100% pixel art style would've been better. The WASD also seem only to apply only to w and a.

brilliant idea!
The game is a bit too hard in my opinion.
Mabe there should be few ennemies at the beginning and then, waves with more and more ennemies.
I really like the concept! =D

The mechanic was interesting and it was nicely tied together with the visuals, which is always a plus :) Had some WASD issues (for some reason for me the key bindings were SDQZ?).

Well firstly, NOONE calls ME Loose. Really awesome concept for a game, love the idea of using lighting and shadows as a weapon. Lovely art style to it aswell! I found the W & A keys didn't seem to work on the windows version though. Would love to see the idea developed further!
