STARCAT :: Godstar Slayer

(This game will struggle on WEBGL if you have a low end PC.. Please run the Windows/Linux Builds)

This is my submission for the Minijam 113 : Final Boss.
This game was HIGHLY ambitious and a solo project that cost me 36 hours of dev time. I crunches more than I usually do and hope you enjoy the little game I created. this is unfinished but still very playable, due to it being a gamejam game, please expect bugs.

Reported Bugs:
- Dying for the second time causes a hardlock
- Sprite on WebGL rarely get stuck in a coloured state
- Audio is very low, turn your volume up as necessary.
- Fuel goes into negative values & does not end in failure.

Controls:

All mouse, baby!

Help:

Unique battle system will lead you to be strategic with your move placement. I had more planned but had to divert quickly away from a full inventory + combine system that caused affinity reactions. For now this is the combos:

Attack vs Attack = both take damage
Attack vs Defence = damage is nullified
Attack vs Healing = you stop the healing
Defence vs Defence = nothing happens.
Healing vs Healing = you both heal.

Tip. Enemies have a limited healing pool.. so attritition is sometimes best bet.

Fun Fact:

The song used in this was also features in another game I collaborated in with a lovely talented gamedev Emma. You can check out her page here: https://elyon.itch.io/ where you can see her amazing games and some of the inspiration for this game here. Starcat is Emma's dream game that I drew inspiration from and hope they like my game.
