Progress after 24 hours

Hi everyone !!!

Hope you have as much fun as I am making a minimalist game ๐Ÿ˜‰

My game is called “Lost Colours”. Basically, a virus is attacking your computer (whatever you want it to be actually) to make all the colours disappear. Your goal is to protect the colours from the virus, and eventually destroy it completely when you have gathered enough orbs.

Of course, the viruses shoot at you (and at the arena [making colours disappear]) so you have to survive while all this happens ๐Ÿ˜‰

 

Here is the main menu:

As you can see, it is brief and complete (who said minimal ?!?). But the player gets all the information he needs.

 

Here is the arena screen:

Further explanations:

  • The player is the white pixel in the middle (he can move don’t worry).
  • The viruses are the skulls (very original ๐Ÿ˜‰ ). They leave orbs that you can pick up after you killed them
  • The coloured borders delimit the arena: you die if you touch one of them. Also, they are the things that are shot at by the viruses.
  • The game ends when you collect enough orbs or when you die or when every bordering block has lost its color.

 

I tried to keep it minimal, but now I don’t know what to do to improve on it. And according to what I see on here, there are way crazier games made…

Good luck on the last day !!!
