Plunder! by Temmy

made by Temmy for LD 40 (COMPO)

Known Issues

• Enemy ships don't flash on hit in HTML5 (technique I was using doesn't seem to work when exported)

• Clicking the LMB doesn't reset the fire delay correctly. Keep LMB held down.

Objective

Plunder as much gold as you can in 60 seconds by blowing up ships, collecting gold, and then returning to port. The more gold you collect, the heavier and slower you will become...

If an enemy ship touches you it's game over.

Controls

WASD to move, mouse to aim and LMB to shoot (keep LMB held down - there seems to bug with fire speed if you click each time).

This is such a cute and awesome idea. The ships are adorable and while the gameplay is simple the execution of hat you have is well done. Lot of little charm here if fleshed out into a full game!

Also, +1 for using GameMaker. :)

Cool game with some room for polish. Really nice graphics including the UI elements. Had some problems with the shooting mechanic and noticed the information about holding it down only after a couple of runs. Overall enjoyed my time with the game.

Everything about this is very cute. The game is surprisingly captivating for such a simple concept. Really enjoyed playing this one... could see myself wasting hours on a mobile version of this with a couple more features.

really great idea but it was way too hard - more ships kept coming and i could only shoot like every 15-20 seconds - made it frustrating - i did like the idea and the graphics were very good
