My entry for the Mixed Genre competition is "Redshirt Fodder"
Option 1 : Retro / Strategy
https://therevillsgames.itch.io/redshirt-fodder
Inspired by the great Cannon Fodder game on the Amiga and Star Trek :P
Again I ran out of time for everything I wanted to do... (last week I was in Brisbane for a holiday) but it was fun to code :)
looks brilliant. gonna get my game head on this afternoon and start playing :)
I enjoyed playing this one, especially as I completed all 5 missions on my very first go! ;D :P
Admittedly I was responsible for the deaths of far too many Redshirts, so I will give it some more plays with the aim of not getting quite so many of 'em slaughtered.
Perhaps this game's a bit too easy overall? Of course, I would rather a game be relatively easy (at least initially) than be frustratingly difficult right from the beginning. But that's really just the non-game-player in me speaking.
Thanks guys :)
@BasicBoy - I was going to create more levels which got harder over time, I wanted to increase the skill level of both the Redshirts and the Clingons. Also different types of enemies were on my TODO list but of course I ran out of time :(
Uploaded v1.01 which fixes some of the cracks which were appearing in the tile maps.
