Octopus ! by Monoquartz

[raw]
made by Monoquartz for LD29 (COMPO)
Since the beginning, men reigned on the ocean. But now, it's time for the underwater wildlife to revenge from this evil master. So Stacato, a young octopus decided to fight those boats !
Arrow keys to move. S to open and close the shop. Spacebar to activate shield (10 secondes delay between 2 uses).
Have fun ! The have only 8 waves due to Scratch's memory lacks.
You need to shot several time boats to explode them. But you have some upgrades in the Shop which help you to jump higher, or make more damage or...
(For information, healthbar on the top is the octopus's life, and the hull of the boat hurt you.)

Still not shared, I'm afraid.

Nice game, the sprites were a bit small, but on the overall the gameplay was nice, good job! :)

Sorry, but the frame rate was so poor I could not really play your game.

Gameplay was nice, but unfortunately the platform does mean that you had to sacrifice a lot in terms of overall quality of the game. =l

Wasn't too sure what I was meant to be doing - was the top bar meant to represent the boats health as I got it down on a number of occasions but nothing seemed to be happening :( I liked the visual representation of the game and the audio.

Nice idea, but at first I don't know what I must do, but I get it ;)

I like the art and music, and the controls felt pretty good. But I wasn't at all clear on whether I was supposed to be ramming the boats from below or jumping on top of them, or how to use the shield.

Also I couldn't tell how the resources in the top right, the icons you collect, and the prices in the shop related...

I really liked the game but the controls worked against it, constantly tapping Up to jump over the water got tiresome quickly. Though everyone is praising them, so I don't know if I got a bug or something.

Neat game, Im not exactly sure how I was supposed to be attacking the boats, I jumped at them from underneath but I'm not sure what that was doing. The art is cute though.
