Time Catches Up With You by YeahJey
Controls: WASD - Move LMB - Shoot Mouse Wheel / Q/E - Zoom In/Out in the Map View
The game isn't finished, there's a lot of things we'd like to add to make the experience more fun. Lots of things to balance, lots of minor bugs to fix, but the idea overall is present.
Game Rules:
1) You use mana to shoot. Mana regenerates passively.
2) 5 seconds after you spawn the pursuer is spawned. He drains mana if you are near him and slowly increases his speed and mana burn as the time goes.
3) If the pursuer burns your whole mana, you are teleported to the boss.

My life went to -1.5 so I'm not sure if you made dead function? And in the end when the game is over I don't know if I won or lost?

It seemed like a cool idea with pick up items and stuff but I did not understand what to do.

Really confusing... didnt really know what to kill and you cant even die which is weird. I get the element of delaying with the pursuer, but it didnt really shine through because it seems that you added a lot of things and finished only a few things. next time lower the scope of the game and aim for a more polsihed experience

@golin We added the win condition in the last twenty minutes before the deadline, so such bugs were almost unavoidable. Thank you for playing!

@danonino Enemies were my last priority, and I forgot to turn them off before building the game. You would be able to kill them, but it would serve no purpose but to get rid of them, since they (in theory) should make traversing the map harder. Also, you can die, but I failed to set the lose condition right. First time jamming, so we underestimated the time needed to polish things. Thank you a lot for your feedback, we appreciate it!
