Fleet Command by kaynank

[raw]
made by kaynank for LD34 (COMPO)
A minimalist top-down arcade game. Control your spaceship with only the left and right arrow keys. Take control of other ships by ramming into them - you control all your spaceships at the same time. Use your new ships to destroy the enemy for points before they destroy you.

Made in Java - Game is packaged as a runnable JAR, so it should be cross-platform, but I've only tested on Windows.

I like the idea of attaching into another spaceship and using them against others, but it took me a while to learn that :P. funny

I get an error when I try to run it (windows 7 64 bit). The idea seems interesting, though.

Cool game, and kind of hard. I like being able to take control of other ships. However it tends to ruin my ability to navigate :P

I think it would be cool if the ships attached themselves in parallel to your ship so you could still control it properly.

Great game, the principle is simple but I loved it !
The direction of the ship isn't so clear at the beginning. Still loving this one !

Fun experiment ! Controls are original but once you are hit it become even more weird so you sometime pray for death :) I liked the chaos induced and the weird mechanics...

Very creative idea! I'd love to see this more fleshed out!
