“Not Terrible” Build
So the competition is over, but I was interested in exploring my entry further. My hope is to turn it into something more enjoyable. Here’s a ‘day after’ version with a few less crippling bugs (don’t worry, it’s still possible to tunnel out of the world and fall forever).
Features include:
- 6 levels
- tuning
- more accurate particle effects
- rewritten player movement
- two creature types
- limited ammunition
- debris vacuum for refilling ammunition
<w, a, s, d> or <arrows> to move
<mouse> to aim and fire
<space> to vacuum up debris and refill ammunition

Awesome.. thanks to the vacuum power I was able to beat all of the 6 new levels. Great job ! There is something simply so fun about the mechanics in this game. I even recorded a 1 minute video of me messing around on your ‘You Win’ screen..

Bug: when I double-click, it seems to take away the keyboard control. It’s quite annoying when an enemy is shooting at me…

I’ve got the vacuum affecting enemy projectiles, I’ll get that into the next release. I should have at least rudimentary sounds in this evening.
