Ludum 31 THE ARENA by Mincemeat
Second time participating in the Ludum Dare.
Instructions:
Survive as long as possible.
Controls:
Up Arrow - Shoot Up.
Down Arrow - Shoot Down.
Left Arrow - Shoot Left.
Right Arrow - Shoot Right.
(Combine arrow keys for "cool" (not that cool) attacks).
W - Move Up.
A - Move Left.
S - Move Down.
D - Move Right.
Tips:
-Grab the green orbs on the ground. They give stat upps.
-Every 10 seconds a new wave of monsters spawn.
-The longer the game has been going the more monsters.
-Monsters stats are all random, they also scale with time.
watch out for the 'crickets' they are mean.
Thanks for trying the game, feedback is welcome. Sorry for no Music, I couldn't make anything that wasn't repetitive and I didn't want to drive you crazy with a repetitive combat track.
further apologies:
I screwed up and forgot to change the resolution settings so the screen is kind of wonky (its missing 20% of the scene). The entire playable area is in the shot though so at least there's that.

don't worry about the last minute details, we all messed up somewhere along the line.
