Slimes and Spells

Based on BraceYourselfGames' Crypt of the NecroDancer

In Slimes and Spells, you've got 100 turns to score as many points as you can via killing slimes with your spells. Rings of a slime's color will appear to show that they're about to spawn and each slime has their own movement pattern (identical to NecroDancer). The more slimes you kill in one turn, the more points you earn for said turn. Killing enough slimes in a turn also grants you extra turns! 

Controls:

Arrow keys - Move

Z - Spell 1

X - Spell 2

Spells:

Fireball - Kills all slimes that are horizontal to you

Pulse - Kills all slimes in an X-shape (i.e. up-left, up-right, down-right, and down-left from your position, all by 2 tiles) 

Bomb - Plants a bomb that explodes in 3 turns after you place it; Explosion radius is 3x3 (with bomb placement being the center) and kills all enemies inside while dealing 2 damage to you if you're in the radius 

Heal - Heals 0.5 HP and grants 2 turns of invulnerability from all damage (including the turn you use this spell), max HP is 3

Other Tidbits:

Invulnerability is indicated by your character flashing, quicker flashing means you'll lose invulnerability on the next turn.

If you ever take damage from an enemy or a bomb, you'll receive 2 turns of invulnerability (including the turn the damage occurs).

Standing on an incoming slime spot will deal 0.5 damage for every turn you're on it, invulnerability isn't granted from this kind of damage.

I may toy around with the values more but  for anyone that's curious, the score/turn increment tables are currently the following:

Slimes Killed (in one turn) Points Turns 1 +1 +0 2 +3 +0 3 +6 +1 4 +10 +2 5 +15 +3 6 +21 +4 7 +28 +4 8 +36 +5 9 +45 +5 10 +55 +5 11 +66 +6 12 +78 +6 13 +91 +7 14 +105 +7 15 +120 +8
