Stay Forever [Trijam 187]

The original concept for this game was to be a mix of Missile Command meets Asteroids type of video game. Unfortunately, after six hours to develop the game to this point, having had issues with blocking shield design, I settle in the end for a simple game as seen here.

After Trijam event I will go back and fix the game up into a better state.

Instructions

Stay alive as long as possible without being hit by the white orbs.

• You can place a shield to remove the white orbs with the following rules:
• The shield can place anywhere except near the centre. 
• During the first one sec, the shield is invulnerable and can destroy as many white orbs as possible without taking a hit.
• After the first one sec, at least one hit will be required before the shield can be moved. The shield turns blue when it can be moved
• The shield can take up to five hits before it is destroyed.
• White obs will be generated every few secs and every time two white orbs touch and a new white orb is created.

I hope you enjoy the game, Feedback is welcome.

To Do...

The things that I wanted to do but there was not enough time

• A proper UI menu, title splash screen and instructions.
• A recorded high score of the best time.
• Add some graphics, the game currently uses simple prototype circles and squares.
• That three shields could be placed each with its own cooldown.
• A shield would grow until exhaust the hits threshold.
