Firepower
Firepower
NOTE: While the web version works decently well, I recommend downloading the game for the best performance and visual quality.
A weak, under-powered battle robot uses parts dropped by its opponents to build an arsenal of weapons in a quest to become the most powerful killing machine possible.
Firepower was built in a week for olcCodeJam2020 to the theme "The Great Machine."
Use WASD to move and the mouse to aim and shoot.

The concept of a weak battle robot building its own arsenal of weapons is both unique and captivating, and the WASD and mouse controls work seamlessly together to provide an immersive gameplay experience.

Beautiful waves arena shmups!
I love this way of moving it circularly + aim.
Request skill reflexes to avoid =D
Besides, the upgrades weapons are cool.And I really like the overall effect.
I would say it borders on perfection. A score display would be really encouraging for the player in my opinion. As well as either other enemies and/or a boss would be great! Nice Work <3
that is very kind of you to say! i really appreciate the feedback. i would love to add a high-scores board after the jam is over. more enemy types are on the list too!
Had lots of fun playing it! I was pleasantly surprised at how well the graphics, art style and music complemented each other.
