Super Despair Shooter

999BS - From the Tales of After Earth Archive

After failing to reclaim their heart Runner finds themselves being taken transformed into a Silence. If that where to happen it could alter the frequency!!! Its up to Bob the No-mish mage to keep Runner alive, but Bob will not be able to hold off the Silence forever. Its up to Player to decide who will live and who will die... -[0-0]-

==============================================================================================================

How to play!

Enemy's will spawn in the middle of the screen in 1 of 4 lanes. Click the CAST button that matches the lane you want to fire in. You can really SPAM this. Your shots cost 1 of the yellow bar. and deal damage = to your level.

To restore your yellow bar click the black and white squares at the top of the screen. They award 7 yellow bar.

You gain points when you kill the enemy's that spawn. You can keep the game alive as long as you want.

The bar in the middle of the screen determines when the game ends. If it gets to far to the top of the screen or to low to the bottom then the game will end.

Good luck!

Can you beat my score? :v: 9999999?

I like the goth sun. Game didn't fit on my screen though.

Cool game. It was really satisfying to just keep clicking

I think this was a really cool little game, despite the fact that I'm still not entirely sure what was going on. I spam clicked a bunch of stuff that seemed to be working and won. It was short and simple and I liked the idea behind it. Overall, it was pretty fun but I think it would have benefited a lot from some sound effects and music.

Enemies have way too much HP. I somehow managed to win with 0 score ;D
Also had problem with game not fitting on my screen (1920 x 1080), consider lowering size of window.

Art style is really cool - simple, yet interesting. I really liked "Ready?" text animation.

Very stylish. I'm interested in how you move forward with it. Thanks for bringing it by the stream!

Once I understood how to play the game I found it pretty fun. I do wish that the difficulty increased as time went on though as there was never really a point where I felt overwhelmed. Additionally it seems a bit strange that you have to take hits in order to lengthen the game and get a higher score, which is something I only figured out after playing it a few times. The game also required a refresh after getting to the end as otherwise the game would just give you a win immediately when playing a second time. Overall it looks like a pretty well put together game that could be fantastic with a few tweaks and directions.

Some extra explanation on how the game works would've been helpful. One of the times I played, it seemed like I was really kicking butt and making the bar bounce back and forth. Later, I could shoot the enemies infinitely (even at 3 damage each time) and not accomplish anything at all. My score that game was 0 even though I'd gotten to level 3. The concept is super cool and the balancing act can be spectacular.

Oh, and as mentioned elsewhere, the game was too tall for my screen. I could only see about 70% of it at a time.

Nice style and animation. I'm not sure what was going on but I mashed some buttons and lost one game then mashed some buttons and won the next. Pretty fun though.
