Pivotal Point by Juno Nguyen
My first entry for Ludum Dare, created in about 12 hours. A lot could have been better, that is certain. There is no sound because I ran out of time, and I was supposed to preparing to go to work while writing this (I have a shift job). Balancing is not in a good shape either, as this is an incredibly difficult skill that I tried to bite off more than I can chew. I also learned that making AI was a pain. Outcome results may vary despite the same input action.
Despite these and some cut content, the game was more or less close enough to my vision, hence, it is submitted.
The mighty Lother Empire is going to launch an airborne invasion on the Kaedani scums to your right. Your sabotaging party screwed up and only you survived. Use your only remaining remote-controlled missile to make way for the invasion force. You get only one shot.
While not steering the missile, use arrows to move the camera.
Feedback is highly appreciated.
Disclaimer: Some graphic assets (Stars, Starfighters, Missile, and Blaster projectile specifically) were re-used from previously cancelled and unreleased projects. Created using Construct 2.
Update on '13 Dec 15th, 2325 SGT: Fixed some balancing issues and updated AI.
