Brobulon the Terrible by angrybearcrossup
I did the jam, but I worked alone because none of my friends wanted to work on it this weekend.
You're an alien, and you want to conquer earth! So go over there and wreck up all their nice buildings so they can't be a society anymore.
WASD moves your ship.
You aim your main cannon with the mouse.
Left Shift/Space uses your boost meter to speed you up.
Your "BREAKER" beam charges over time. When it's full, hold the Right Mouse Button for 3 seconds to fire your BREAKER beam straight down.
The Left Mouse Button fires the main cannon. Hold it for automatic fire. You can fire while preparing to fire the breaker beam.
You clear the level when all buildings have been destroyed. There are five levels.
Good luck!

Loved the general chaos and PEW PEW sounds :) I wish the buildings wouldn't get in the way, they give the tanks too much advantage now. Pretty fun tho.

Long game, and quite interesting. You basically dodge projectiles while holding your mouse button, occasionally checking if the breaker is charged, and then firing it (and dying). You can shoot while exploding and theres a typo (Back to ti(t)le. At first I thought: 5 ships? I won't even need 1 extra ship. Then I got on level 2 and thought: 5 ships? I'll never make it! I died at the level with the big central skyscraper.

Fun game to play! I usually don't play these kind of games much, but this one was actually really fun. I liked how you implemented these slow projectiles that would actually give you some time to plan a route to escape them. Got a bit repetitive after a few levels, but nevertheless I am happy to see a game with mechanics that work (although they are not that innovative ;)) Well done!
