Interstellar Janitorial Service by justin_largo

made by justin_largo for LD 42 (COMPO)

Welcome to your new job JU-018!

As our newest janitorial unit, your first job is to clean the trash compactor room. The controls have been kinda iffy so hopefully, you won't get squished like our last bot!

-Controls-

Left Click-Fire shotgun for monsters

Right Click-Fire hose for cleaning garbage

WASD/Arrow keys to move

Mouse to change directions

Directions

The goal is to clean the room before the doors close on you! Your hose has limited capacity! So use it wisely to clean or push away evil critters! Enemies will spawn on top of garbage so be sure to be careful! Whatever kills you score will let you be able to buy much-needed upgrades!

Tools used

Engine: Construct 3

Graphics: Paint.NET

Sound: SFXR and Audacity

Music: Bosca Ceoil

Yup thank you for the feedback @thechubbypanda ! I made the music really early this morning and changed it about an hour ago so it should be alot more easier on the ears :laughing: Enjoy!

Hey Justin, great take on the theme. I like how the aliens leaves filth everywhere. I also like how the camera shakes when you fire. Good job!

It took me a short while to get my head around the game, but when I did I really enjoyed it! With some work on the graphics, this game would be incredible. :)

Thanks, @hailburns and @dangerbackwards ! I'm more of a programmer than artist or musician so I gave it a shot! I'll definitely try to get better graphics on it post dare!

Would have liked to see the bullet travel to my mouse position, the current setup is a bit tricky to aim.

Also it seems like I take damage way too fast if I drive into something. Not sure if this is a bug, or if the iframes are too short/missing. The fast move speed exacerbates this a bit.

Nice feature set! Upgrades are a great touch, and keep the game moving.

@fireslash thanks for the input! There's definitely a good amount of bugs going on with how the enemies spawn/ player movement that I plan on fixing when I get the time.
