Project MESS

Project MESS, short for Multiplicative Enemy Spawn System, is a prototype designed for GMTK Game Jam 2020. The simple shooter, soon turns into an overwhelming experience with multiple enemies spawning with every kill. The game goes out of control pretty quick.

Controls:

• WASD to move
• Mouse cursor to aim
• Primary mouse button to shoot

Gameplay Details:

• Players can shoot enemies and eliminate them
• Upon eliminating, enemies drop loot
• Loot can be picked up by walking over them
• Loot includes weapon ammo, and 1/2 powerup
• 1/2 powerup slows down the spawn rate of enemies
• Eliminating an enemy increases the spawn multiplier
• Eliminating an enemy spawns new enemies based on the spawn multiplier
• Enemies slowly drain health upon being touched on
• Number of enemies eliminated appears at the end screen

Final Notes:

Really, really thank you for checking this project. It means a lot to me.

Love, Sliptrixx.
