Tactical Military Dolphin Wrecking Insanity indeed.</p>\n<p>This is my first Ludum Dare and i’ll be joining the “light” Jam for i have no stomach for the Compo.</p>\n<p>Delph Ops is an Arcade Bullet Hell. You control a torpedo-launcher-equiped dolphin. A lone soldier in the fight against countless waves (WAVES CAUSE WE’RE IN THE SEA) of enemy ships and submarines.</p>\n<p>The best way to explain the mechanics is: Ecco the Dolphin meets Luftrausers. Needless to say, both games are my main inspirations for this one.</p>\n<p>You control the Dolphin hero with WASD/Arrows and shoot your torpedos by pointing and clicking. The Torpedos have a small delay and arc, so targeting must be done with timing.</p>\n<p>Just like in Ecco, you can perform a leap to the surface that gets stronger the faster you move. Performing a leap is required in order to take down Ships and, in case there is any time left, blimps!</p>\n<p>You die with a single hit. Also, hitting ships straightforward will kill you. Enemies have varying HP.</p>\n<p>Now i’m doing the intro menu before i forget and/or get way too desperate.</p>\n<p>Hope you folks like it! I’ll be posting it this sunday afternoon @GMT-3 ( Brazil )</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Interface.jpg\"><img alt=\"Interface\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-349466\" height=\"180\" src=\"/data/posts/2014/04/778d677450e28984b57d49130bbd5fda.jpg\" width=\"300\"/></a></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/scr.jpg\"><img alt=\"scr\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-349484 size-medium\" height=\"160\" src=\"http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/scr-e1398579270109-300x160.jpg\" width=\"300\"/></a> <a href=\"http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Scr2.jpg\"><img alt=\"Scr2\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-349485 size-medium\" height=\"162\" src=\"http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Scr2-e1398579244102-300x162.jpg\" width=\"300\"/></a></p>", "time": "April 26th, 2014 11:07 pm", "title": "Hi Hello!
