Sidegrade

Description

A shoot 'em up where you have to apply one upgrade after each wave of enemies. Each upgrade, however, also has a negative effect. You must sacrifice one stat to make another stronger.

This game was made in 2 days for Ludum Dare 43 where the theme was Sacrifices must be made.

How to play

• Arrow keys to move
• Hold Z to shoot
• Destroy the enemies
• Upgrade your ship
• Survive the wave
• alt+F4 exits the game

Known bugs and issues

• Sometimes enemy projectiles don't collide with the player
• There's nothing after wave 11 (but you're not really supposed to survive wave 11 anyway)
• There's no main menu
• The game exits immediately upon game-over
• No clean way to exit the game, you have to use alt+F4
