Shoot or Move by Dan Colman

The rules are simple: SHOOT or MOVE. The THIRD hit is fatal. Last man standing WINS!!

It works with a mouse, but is best with up to 6 PS4 controllers. Must download PC version to use controllers.

Good
- High level of polish
- Simple concept with a high skill ceiling
- AI is great
Could be improved
- Its hard to tell when a player is on its last hit
- After the missile hit something, maybe the mouse cursor could be teleported back to the body
- Would be amazing as a team vs team battle!
- Could throw in some powerups in the middle as an incentive for people not to fly as far away as possible
Edit: It's right click! In case anyone else got stuck like I did. :)
After playing it, I can safely say that this was a ton of fun! I definitely want to give it a try with a bunch of human players, instead of just CPU, and props to you for writing AI so that people can try it out singleplayer!
Would definitely whip this out for a few rounds with some friends. Could definitely be expanded upon post jam to be pretty great with multiple levels + online support (just the easiest, right? :wink: )
Only complaint I had would be lack of UI. Couldn't figure out how to close it when I was done and had to CTRL+ALT+DEL out. Also very possible that I was being a dork and just couldn't figure it out. :laughing:
Great job all!
As some people said before me, it was kinda hard to figure out controls like how to start the game or how to exit.
It also took me a second to figure out which ship I was lol.
I like the simplicity of the colours against the background!
If I had friends this would be a great minigame to laugh and scream at each other with.
Great job!
@kambing powerups were a stretch goal we didn't get to implement during the jam!
