Negative Space Invaders by ocarson
NEGATIVE SPACE INVADERS LD72 VERSION
------------------------------------
Requires a dual stick pad.
Will probably require setting up controls in launcher.
Explore and climb the world to get points.
There are 2 viewports on the screen, you control their positions with the thumbsticks.
When they overlap, you can move between the viewports using the yellow space.
You move with the d-pad
Jump with the X button.
When you press the triggers, you will fire at the viewport you're not in.
if you're in the yellow viewport however, L trigger fires at the red viewport, and r at the green viewport.
Enemies will attack from the negative space around the screen. Shoot them.
Thats it.
Thanks for taking the time to read this! Follow me on the tweets.
Also thanks to my pals Tom and Christa for making some music for me :3

NOTES
--------------------------
The shader seems to default to black, and not colour on some systems but theres no time to fix that!
It's 2:20am!
Consider it a feature.
I streamed 95% of the making of this on twitch. It's all archived if you have a spare 15 hours.

Only controllable with controller, so I couldn't play it

In the future, please make a version that doesn't require just a dual stick pad...

I'm sorry, I tried to persevere with it but I just couldn't last more than a few seconds each time I restarted :( I did fiddle around and manage to get the controls working reasonably well with an Xbox 360 pad, but the black squares just appear out of nowhere really fast and I wasn't quick enough to avoid or shoot them. Also there are a lot of controls to deal with - I'm essentially trying to move 3 things at once with two hands. I did try :(
