You're one awesome gladiator guy or girl that must survive 9 harsh challenges. After that you're free. But you choose to stay in the arena, probably because the programmer was to lazy to put in a real ending in the game! But there is something strange. The weapon you use is quite unconventional. The bullets will not hurt you. But after damaging an enemy, the bullet will become red or evil! The bullet won't hurt the enemy anymore. But it will hurt you. So watch out for red bullets! And one other thing! The bullets bounce around a bit before disappearing.\r\n\r\nHOW TO PLAY:\r\nWASD - MOVEMENT\r\nMOUSE - AIM\r\nLEFT MOUSE BUTTON - SHOOT\r\nSPACE - STARTS NEXT ROUND(You can also click on the text)\r\n\r\nWhen you finish a level an upgrade screen will slide in. You have 1 upgrade point after each level. NOTE: UPGRADE POINTS DO NOT STACK! ALWAYS SPEND THEM BEFORE NEXT ROUND! Here is what the stats do:\r\nRestore health - Restores one health point. The maximum number of health points is 5.\r\nDamage - Increases damage by 1 for each upgrade point spent. Maximum is 4. Enemies health increase by one each round.\r\nSpeed - Increases Speed by 1 for each upgrade point spent. Maximum is 6. You start with 4 speed.\r\n\r\nThis is my fourth ludum dare entry. I'm so happy with this one actually. Finished well before the deadline. It was a fun experience. But i'm really tired working with my own engine. It's so frustrating when something just won't work. But a good experience to have in the future. Please leave feedback! (Bad or good, doesn't matter to me) ENJOY! :D\r\n\r\nEDIT: This is regarding the crashes. I'm almost going mad at this point. I can't even reproduce a crash on any of my 4 test computers! I checked through the code over and over again and can't find anything. But I did found some old font code that was not being used. I removed so hopefully it is fixed now. If not I don't know what to do.","title":"Arena King"}
