hearthbeat

you control a spaceship with a job of continually keeping the hearth alive by firing energy into it. unfortunately to avoid the risk of catching any infections the hearth is surrounded by shields which you'll have to carefully avoid to keep the hearth charged. the hearth dies after 7 seconds of not being charged and the less amount of time you have to charge the hearth the faster you move! (less time means more stress). this is my first game jam I partook in and I really enjoyed myself! this game was created for the jam during the weekdays with around 5 hours of work. its a quick project in construct as I am trying to get into the game design mood and return to unity after a long hiatus. as an additional challenge I forced myself to draw the whole game in MS paint (i usually draw pixel art cause that doesn't require a drawing pad). any comments and plays are really appreciated!
