10TICK by Forstride

[raw]
made by Forstride for LD27 (COMPO)
10TICK is a fast-paced, arena-style TDS. Your goal is to stay alive as long as possible, avoiding hazards, and collecting more time. To get more time, you must shoot targets to make potted plants appear.

If you shoot a green potted plant, the timer will reset back to 10. If you shoot a golden potted plant, the timer will freeze for a short period of time. If you shoot a purple potted plant, the timer will go down by 1 second.

If the timer reaches 0, you explode, and have to start over.

Controls:

WASD - Move
Shift - Slide
R - Restart
Left Mouse Button - Shoot
Right Mouse Button - Smooth Aiming

Made with Game Maker: Studio Standard.

Man, this is hard! I like the basic idea but it took me ages to realise I needed to hit the targets and then back into the middle of the map. Those gun turrets are pretty lethal.

I like the idea, however a certain part (intentional or unintentional) made it a big pain. To complete it, you kinda have to scout the area and then plan the best path. However, the turrets don't seem to reset to ther initial rotation on death, so it became a "find the best route and pray the turrets are looking the other way". Could have used a more zoomed out camera due to that.

Very hard game! I wouldn't mind that, but I think the turrets make the game unneccessary difficult. It's hard to notice where they are and where they are aiming until it's too late.

Otherwise the game was pretty well done.

Could use some ingame instructions, but fun concept (why do you shoot plants LOL)
