Scrap Time by auxC
Topdown shooter with robots, funky physics and ridiculous powerups.


All the other robots really want to break you to pieces. Although you start with nothing but a set of wheels, that might be just enough to set you on a path to become the most OP scrapyard pusher they have ever seen, at least around this small platform halfway submerged in lava.

If you manage to grab the first gun and some ammo you might as well go all the way to the 'triple shot rapid fire piercing yoyo stop they are already dead plus super knockback' build. Make sure to brag to us if you manage to break the game with too many bullets. Have fun!!

Maybe add a blinking effect when hitting enemies. I was confused about whether I hit them at the beginning.
There could be more feedback when taking damage, and the difficulty and player power level ramp up pretty slowly, but it was fun!
As the levels increase and the action heats up, this got more and more satisfying. I found myself enjoying the intensity more and more with the brief break between "waves".
I was surprised that even though there was little differentiation between the player and enemy colours, I didn't get confused about which robot was mine.
I would have loved to get more weapon upgrades more frequently (even if enemy difficulty increased faster too) there was something satisfying about seeing my robot and guns become more powerful... and adjusting my play style to the new weapons. So I'd like to see more of that.
Thanks for submitting your game for me to play on my livestream!
