10 Seconds To Hell by Davirtuoso

[raw]
made by Davirtuoso for Ludum Dare 51 (JAM)

STRONGLY RECOMMENDED YOU CLICK THE FULLSCREEN BUTTON IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT WHEN PLAYING

A bullet-hell style game inspired by the LD51 theme 'Every 10 Seconds'.

The aim is simple - survive as long as you can. Every 10 seconds every single enemy will fire their gun at you, and the projectiles will seek you until you destroy them.

WASD to move, Boost (space bar) to gain a burst of speed and become temporarily invincible. You can destroy projectiles and enemies in this state. It'll take a little while to recharge though, so look out for the flash to know when you're good to go.

More enemies will spawn over time, and they'll spawn faster the longer you last so watch out!

Live as long as you can - good luck!

Speed/Velocity feels sticky, very difficult to control after round 3-4.
Graphics looks fancy, but my laptop started screaming in 1 min :D

Well done!

Cool idea! I found it a little tough in the beginning, but after a while it's a fun game. The text is a bit hard to see.

@zl17 Thanks for playing, and the feedback about the text is appreciated. I'll look at how I can contrast it a bit better for ease of reading :smiley:

Nice little game. Pretty hard especially with the bullet tracking. Boosting to hit enemies feels good. Nice Job!

Very clear and simple game, but the dash mechanic adds a nice little touch of strategic thinking. Well done!

Very interesting idea, the only thing i would change is that the player should move a little bit faster. Aside from that, good job!

Fun game but it takes a while to get used to. The player character also moves super slow so it's hard to avoid objects sometimes.

Simple and a lot of fun! Great job!
I'm a little confused by the color of the ball so I know when I'm invincible and when I'm not.

A fun game idea! It was a bit too slow paced for my liking, I would have enjoyed the cooldown timer to be shorter on the recharge. Thank you for the game!

I'm pretty sure the enemy spawnrate stays even after restarting, so on like the 5th try they start spawning really fast and you have to restart the page to reset it. Otherwise fun game.
