About

Description
[name] is a tactical top-down shooter arcade game where you play as a  squad of color-coded characters. You can only control one squadmate at a time, but you can activate alert mode to cover your flanks as you move from objective to objective. Alert mode will attempt to shoot any enemy that enters the cone drawn from the character.

Carefully advance to the objectives, marked by blue squares,  to earn points. Make sure that you cover all your flanks, because enemies can come from anywhere on the border of the map.

Alert cones will work best if they are holding long angles. Watch out, because enemies can approach your characters from the side, rendering their alert useless. Pay attention and keep all of your squadmates alive, lest you get surrounded and outlflanked.

Install instructions

GAME WONT OPEN:

If the game wont open then you need to install the newest JRE here. You probably have it but an earlier version.

https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jdk13-downloads.html

MAC USERS: 'UNIDENTIFIED DEVELOPER'

This pops up because I am an average joe and not famous enough for your computer to recognize me as a developer. Open System Preferences then go to Security & Privacy (located near the top) and at the bottom of the 'General' tab you will see the name of my game and just click 'Allow'.

After this if you get a message about not having the JDK just click the link in the guide in the above paragraph.
