Chroma Defense

Chroma Defense is a game created for Mini Jam 62.  The theme was "Colors" and the limitation was to use only two frames in any animation.

The game is a  space shooter where you must match the color of your rays to the color of the missiles falling towards Earth.

Lives

The player has 3 ships available. If it runs out of ships the game is over.

The Earth can sustain damage from 4 missiles. More than that and the Earth is toast.

Controls

To move LEFT or RIGHT use the arrow keys.

To switch your ray's color use the following keyboard keys:

Z - Red

X - Green

C - Blue

V - Rainbow Ray (see Power Ups below)

Pressing the button will automatically change the color and shoot.  

Hitting a missile of a different color than your ray will have no effect on the missile, but you will lose points as explained below in the "Scores" section.
