Controls are Q and E to switch floors, click to add waypoints (but only during planning phase) and delete to remove.

This game is a real time strategy gauntlet game played against a NPC sniper.
The current object of the Compo version of this game is to avoid death for as long as possible. The sniper (red cube) has taken a spot atop the central building in the square, and will attempt to shoot you every several seconds. He can shoot through windows, but not solid walls.
The game has two states, planning, and executing. Each stage lasts ten seconds. During the planning stage the mouse can be used to place waypoints. Q and E allow you to go up and down floors to create waypoints. Backspace can be used to erase waypoints from the end of the path. During this period the sniper will also decide whether to change their position to get a better shot. You will not be able to see their waypoints. During the execution stage, both you and the sniper will move to the chosen waypoints. This is done automatically, so your character will go up ramps if it needs to go up a floor. If you desire a certain ramp to be used, or a certain doorway to be used to avoid the sniper's path, a waypoint should be place there. The sniper will shoot at you periodically. If there is a clear path (i.e. no solid walls in the way) between you and the sniper, you die. Your score increments after surviving an execution stage.

In the post competition version (which ratings should not be based off of), the goal is to get all five keys located on top of the buildings, and then get to the gate at the top of the map. Good luck.



This game was created using Unity3d for assembly and scripting.
Blender was used for the construction of some base meshes.
BFXR was used to create the timer sound effect.

Initially only a Web-based distribution can be provided because I made a game breaking change just before the time ended so I need to fix that before I provide other ports. All of the improvements that will arise in the ports were done before 9:00 and I just had to resolve one issue before I rebuilt the project. I plan to create a post-compo version that has several improvements which will be labeled as such.

Special thanks to my friends Caleb Jones and Blade Nelson for being an artistic distraction and allowing me to bounce ideas off of them during the dozen or more hours we spent talking during this 48 hour period.
