Ovus Nova
About
Ovus Nova is a simple strategy game about hatching creatures in space! Duplicate or detonate your units in order to achieve victory!
This game is still under Development! There are bugs, placeholder graphics and all of that good stuff. You should still be able to play and (hopefully) enjoy yourself with this unique and challenging real-time-strategy game, though.
What you need to know:
- Use the left mouse button to turn your creatures into eggs. Eggs split into two creatures after a while.
- Use the right mouse button to detonate your creatures. That deals damage to enemies.
- Your creatures are not vulnerable to enemies, but your eggs are.
- Kill all enemies in order to win.
- Press Space to pause the game. You can still detonate and duplicate your units while the game is paused.
Advanced stuff:
- The Alt Key can be used to speed the game up.
- At the top you can see a bar that fills up over time. When it's full you can select an upgrade. It fills up three times as fast if you don't have any eggs on the screen.
Here are some additional Buttons you can use in this build:
- Esc = End Game
- R = Restart Level
- N = Next Level (Cheat)
I document the entire creation process of this game on YouTube. Here is how the game looked when I got started:
In order to find an art style, I created 4 completely different looks. After that my little YT community and me simply picked the best one:
