Equilibria by Khaldrin
First Ludum Dare for me - great experience! So here's my game:
Equilibria:
You have to defeat all enemies by either overcharging them or completely absorbing their energy. The difficulty is, that you can die as well from these causes. So you have to maintain a balance between overcharging and absorbing, while trying not to let the enemies come to close.
Tips: Overcharged enemies sometimes multiply, better kill them quickly. But they also explode upon death and deal damage to all enemies in their surroundings. Absorbed enemies simply desintegrate... no danger here.
Controls: WASD for movememt, Left and right mouse buttons for shooting. LMB: red laser, transfers energy from yourself to the enemy. RMB: blue laser transfers energy from the enemy to yourself.
Have fun and don't explode :)

A little tricky to figure out what to do at first though.
I like the music!
Although i think you could enhance the way you teach the player how to play.
Give them one or two tutorial levels, and this will be one of my favorite entries :D
Great work.
The instructions screen passed by very quickly, so my first few sessions were failures. I had to read the instructions here to figure out how to play.
