Roller Coaster Defender
Made by Luís Eduardo Rozante
Description
Roller Coaster Defender is a game made for Ludum Dare 47 with the theme: "Stuck in a Loop"
You control a train stuck on a roller coaster's vertical loop, you must fight against waves of enemies taking time in between the attacks to buy weapons and extra cars, protect your main car at all cost!
The source code is available at: https://github.com/LuisEduardoR/LudumDare47
This game was made from scratch in 48 hours, all code, art and sounds were made by me during this period. I used Unity as my game engine, GIMP and Krita for the art and Audacity and Bosca Ceoil for the sound effects and music.
Instructions
- Left and Right Arrows: move the car
- Spacebar: fire all weapons
- P: Pause the game
- After a wave is finished you will have acces to a store.
- In the store you can repair, buy new cars and upgrade your weapons.
- Your main car is always automatically repaired but it can't be upgraded!
- If you lose your main car you lose the game!
- If you lose a car in the middle of your train you lose all cars that come after it!
