Polarity by Moraleidahgo

[raw]
made by Moraleidahgo for LD32 (JAM)
When facing yourself, time is your only weapon! That and lasers. A lot of lasers.
Polarity is 3D top down dodgeball style shooter where you must face all your previous selves every round. Shoot, dodge, defend and attack to beat the mistakes and successes of your past.

-> W, A, S, D to move
-> Aim with the mouse
-> Shoot with the left mouse button, hold to charge
-> Shield by holding the right mouse button

Any feedback is welcome! Thanks!

The sound and feeling of the laser bolts are very, very satisfying -- maybe not unconventional, but very satisfying :)

Interesting mechanics, but I had trouble moving. Great aesthetics. Good job!

Very good, I really like the effects, Its a little hard to tell when my weapon is re-charged and ready to go, a little power charge bar might help but very nice, love the sound and graphics.

I didn't realize the concept until after I finished playing and read the description. That's an amazing concept! I loved it, very fun and great art/music :-)

It was all very well done, but the difficulty sort of exploded after round 6. I spent 5-10 minutes trying to get one hit on the enemy once he started using his shield. Really cool idea anyway.

I think the Windows download contains the Mac build.

Holy cow I am bad at this. Great theme and execution!

Such a great concept! Super innovative. Web build I couldn't move at all, or replay the game. Weapon wasn't unconventional necessarily, but totally made up for it with the unique mechanics.

I'm really digging the game. It plays really well and is fun. I wish there were a couple more gimmicks added but its fun regardless.

Very fun game. I kept firing left and right the first time, before realizing that it would make the clones do the same to me. My second play through was definitely better.

Nicely done!

Wow... I loved the concept that you find yourself, also the game is super complete. Feels awesome. Good Job

Nice game, very complete! Not actually fit into the theme though - the laser weapon is very conventional. Apart from that, very polished, cool music and graphics!

I don't think it's right on the spot of the theme, apart from that, the game is really well made, there is some sharp corners, like the absence of a indication when you could shoot again, and some variation of the "gun" or mechanics.
Good job.

I CAN'T MOVE D:
For some weird reason,I was unable to walk.But I still managed to survive 11 rounds just by starting the round by shooting to the side,then blasting to the front untill all my clones were dead, haha.

The idea is pretty awesome,and the graphics/audio are pretty good ,too bad it didn't work for me x)

Great graphics, good idea and mood... I think it would be suited for two players. AI experience was kinda frustrating, lots of random shots and blind spots.
Nice entry btw
