Symbiosis (itch) (ChrisBCK)
About
Your ship enjoys a symbiotic relationship with it's tethered orb. Use the orb to absorb enemy fire to grow it in size. As the orb grows, the ships' fire power, speed and agility will increase with it.
For best experience use a controller:
- Left stick controls the ship
- Right stick controls the orb
- Right trigger 2 fire ship weapon
- Right trigger 1 fire the orb
Keyboard Controls (if you must):
- WASD controls ship
- cursor arrow keys control the orb
- SPACEBAR fires ship weapon
- ENTER shoots the orb
The orb will turn red when it reaches it's critical state. This gives maximum firepower but absorbing more energy may result in it exploding, it is impossible to tell how much more energy the orb can absorb in its critical state, but it wont be much. You can fire the orb and it will fly forward and detonate when it hits an enemy or reaches its maximum distance. This will discharge all of it's stored energy though, and you will have to recharge by absorbing more enemy fire.
The orb will destroy your ship if it detonates too close to it.
To progress to the next dimension you must destroy the guardian. You can only damage the guardian when in critical state.
Dimension increase with difficulty as you progress.
