A downloadable game

Mars Defender is a crappy prototype made for the Toe Jam!

It's heavily inspired by Antiwar (http://www.feuerware.com/nextlevel/index.php/Games/articles/Antiwar.html), which was a game also made for a game jam (Gameolympics 2005).

It features:

  • 6 Waves of increasingly harder enemies!
  • 2 Different enemy types!
  • Colonists to defend!
  • No sounds AT ALL!!!
  • No change of scenery, no special power ups, just pure point and click action (point at the enemy, and click to shoot!!)

I ran out of steam midway through the jam, as the increasing technical debt and long to do list zapped my motivation. Still, I hope you have a few minutes of fun with this project! I learnt a lot, and I'm glad I still participated.
