JOIN, and DYE

JOIN, and DYE. 

Facing overwhelming enemies with bullets coming from all directions, how will you outplay them in this fast paced, arcade shooter? Each shot must be carefully planned, or you will clumping enemies into a giant monstrosity. 

Use your nail gun and join up 3 enemies with the same COLOR to destroy them. Each enemy has its own properties:

Red: Single shot

Yellow: Fast moving colliders

Blue: Burst shots

Build up combos by destroying enemy orbs without getting hit AND in quick successions!

JOIN, AND DYE ties the theme in 2 ways:

1. Mechanically joined - Shooting and moving only uses one button
2. Game objective  - You have to join 3 enemies of the same color together to destroy them

As a bonus, we decided to  join all the other themes from the previous GMTK jams. Our game has a  Dual purpose design while having only one button to play the game. This top down shooter without health points would get  out of control  as enemy waves are only going to get more intense. 

Controls:

Left mouse button: Click and hold to move and charge your bullet; release to shoot

Esc key: Exit Game
