(Pronounced Vol-vee) Just so you guys don’t pronounce it like Valve with an O instead of A 😛 If you think about it, it’s kinda like saying ‘wall-e’

Help protect your companion ‘Volve’ from the evil spirits sent down from the sky.
Use your trusty weapon to help defend him until he has fully evolved!

Long bar down the bottom tells you how much time until next evolution of Volve!

Controls: 
Arrow Keys – Player movement.
Spacebar – Fire bullets.

Created in FlashDevelop with Flashpunk. My first ever real game that I am actually happy I finished (I did attend ludum dare last time but was not happy with the final result. I still submitted though) This time I feel satisfied with what I have. And Flashpunk is awesome so I’m definetly continuing to use this!

Hmm, you just go either lower corners and press space like a monkey and just watch the egg creature to grow and win the game. wot? That is hardly an interesting game mechanics. Would need a bit more. Looks nice thought., althout “evil spirits” looks more like a astronouts.

Wheee, go Jayden! Brilliant game for the 48 hour time period with those annoying sound effects but overall I think it is pretty good but needs more challenges, it feels a little bit like an easy Super Crate Box at the moment. Try adding a larger level and more enemy types.
