The Amazing Adventure of Magenta-Man by Doctor Broccoli
I wrote a postmortem! Find it here: http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/2012/08/27/magenta-man-a-postmortem
You are Magenta-man, an elite mercenary trained in the various arts of killing
things and taking their stuff. You have been hired to protect a spaceship from
the evil robotic space-communists.
Lucky for you the ship carries a variety of weapons and upgrades that are yours
to use. For a price, of course.
Unlucky for you the communists also have access to various kinds of advanced
weaponry. They will equip themselves with whatever equipment has proven
successful in the past.
Are you a bad enough dude to stop the endless waves of space-commies?
CONTROLS:
WASD: Move
E: Purchase upgrade
Q: Destroy upgrade (You can do this to make the store generate a brand-spanking
new one. NOTE: This will cost you 10 capitalist spacebucks)
Left click: Melee attack
Right click: Ranged attack
