Core Guardian by Nanocryk
Core Guardian is an abstract shooter where you must defend a core and yourself from waves of enemies.
Use inertia and rebounds to stay alive and defend your objective.
Try to get as far as you can !
The game has been tested on multiples Windows computers.
Good chance to work on Linux.
Don't know from OS X, I don't have one but it should work.
EDIT : So after seeing some OpenGL problems with some computers, I changed some properties in the window creation code. I also fixed some broken features such as bullets going through the core or the player damage cooldown not working.
Apparently it's okay to update the game for crash and bug fixes, there are no new features so I hope there will be no problem ...
EDIT2 : It seems my shader loading crash fix is not working so ... I don't know how to make it work ... I'm very sorry for those who won't be able to play it :(
For Windows : You can create a start.bat file with the following content :
----
java -jar CoreGuardian.jar
----
EDIT3 : Ok ... so it only works on Windows ... I'll try to fix this in future versions of the game ...
=== HUD ===
Top : Core and player shields and lifes
Bottom : Wave counter
=== Controls ===
--- MAIN ---
Mouse Left : Move
Mouse Right : Shoot
--- OPTIONS ---
Escape : Quit
P : Pause
F12 : Restart the game if you're stuck someway
