Electric by Madsj

[raw]
made by Madsj for LD34 (COMPO)
The objective of the game is to survive and reach the end

You control the game with 2 buttons - The Right and Left arrow key

You can press them both down simultaneously to stand still and use a Nuke

You can pick up a Powerup to gain 1 life, 1 Nuke and fire a Nuke

If a Nuke is fired, the walls become electric. If you touch an electric wall you will become Electric and immune for 1 hit. If you are Electric and touch another electric wall, you become Super Electric and invincible for 5 seconds

Awesome music. Graphics were simple but work well. Gameplay feels good, could use a little more variety.

Great music. Fun game, although I thought it was a bit too hard to play it the "right" way, so I ended up just holding L+R all the time to stand still. It means you can't really use nukes, but the increased maneuverability was totally worth it!

Arr. So many lovely-looking entries that are Windows-only.
Perhaps I can arrange to borrow a PC from a sympathetic associate.

Loved the retro feel. A bit too challenging. Great two button controls. Wonderful audio. Thanks for the submission!

I'm so stressed by the controls! But the idea is very cool! And gamefeel is pretty good too.
I had problem to launch the game, but I think it came from my antivirus...

Great sound. Graphics really fit the style. Personally I found the constantly moving back and forth a little annoying, would prefer just moving left/right with the keys.

Very hard game, maybe a little too much for my tastes...

Very fun game but a bit unintuitive. Very like the music.

Like the art style and music. I felt a little out of control, not being able to stop moving. It was fun nuking those squares tho

I enjoyed this game and liked the simplicity of it. The only issue I had was the controls, which I find problematic. I'm sure that being able to stop and not being constantly moving would allow the player to move with more accuracy and thus, make the game more fun and fair.

Great job!

The music is absolutely killer! Even more so that it was done by the same person who did the art and programming! Wish there was a neutral state as I kept running into enemies and accidentally missing power ups. Great overall though!

I like the mechanics but it feels a bit unintuitive. Not a fan of powerups being overlaid by squares most of the time.

Cool game! Enjoyed the invincibility mode and the nukes! Should be a countdown for invincibility though.

Was fun and interesting once I got used to it, but it definitely needed some introduction to the mechanics in some fashion, be it a (much) slower start or a tutorial mode, as my first few attempts ended quite quickly given the fast start the game has.
