ModularArena by PepinoSMH
Hello and welcome to my first submit ever to a GameJam!
I couldn't finish it in time, but at least the core mechanic is working <3 The game is a top-down shooter, where you kill enemies and collect weapons parts to create a new one. You can create a weapon with:
2 Body Types: Shotgun and Assault Rifle. 3 Shooting Types: Bullets, Lasers and Particles. 3 Damaging Elements: Fire, Ice and Toxic.
As soon as you pick up a weapon part on the ground, it an icon will appear on the left corner to indicate what you've picked up.

You can mix anything into a 3-part modular weapon and start shooting. Also, enemies have colors which represents their elements, and the right one will do bonus damage. This is the chart "Fire > Ice > Toxic > Fire".
I hope you guys have at least some fun with it and next time i'll try to lower the stakes a little bit so i can finish it in time :v
Controls: WASD Movement Left Click to Shoot. "E" Create a Weapon.
Note: The second link is a "fixed" build, with some things that i didn't have time to add before the Jam ended, like a tutorial text, restart and quit functions, and some tweaks to make it more "playable." Please, use the first build to rate the game, not the fixed one. Thanks for the feedback <3

The weaopn building is not instantly intuitive, I would love a short section where you can try out all the types in the beginning, but you probably did not have time for that.
On the side note, knife enemies gave few laughs. Cool game!
