I made this retro 8-bit game in Construct 3 for the High Score Wins Money Jam. I strongly recommend playing my game in full screen mode and you can use a gamepad, keyboard or touch screen controls

Objective

Score as many points as you can by standing on one column of land and shooting an endless swarm of machines that continuously adapt themselves to better kill you

Keyboard Controls

  • Move - Arrow keys (or WAD)
  • Shoot -  Press X (or Space or Mouse)
  • Restart - Press R 
  • Mute music - Press M

Gamepad Controls

  • Move - D-pad
  • Shoot -  Press X (or Y or Shoulder buttons)
  • Restart - Press Start
  • Back to Menu - Press Select

Please note that if your gamepad is not working, try plugging it into another USB port because your computer may have already configured it to a specific USB slot

Mobile Phone Controls

Touch the grey buttons on the menu screen

Touch the white LEFT, RIGHT, JUMP and SHOOT buttons that appear in-game on the bottom of the screen. (See the screenshots for what this looks like)

Please note that mobile phone controls will appear once a touch input has been detected on the menu screen and will not be visible if using a gamepad or keyboard
