A downloadable game for Windows

Controls: 

mouse - to aim

Press 1 - to throw chakram

--------------------------------------

*UPDATE 09/09/21* - v0_1_3

Inventory correctly 'adds' chakrams when caught.

Thrown chakrams' rotations are independent of the player now - animated sprites coming soon!

--------------------------------------

alas, it's unfinished!

Got the chakram-throwing to mostly work.

Here are the different types of chakrams I drew and their behaviour (to be coded):

standard Chakram: 

'your basic tool for taking down the fascist state'

Shredder:

'you've heard of smash the fash, but how about shred the feds?'

Boomer:

'one of the handful of boomers I can appreciate.'


Bouncer:


Thworper:



next working step(s):

- add player sprites

- add enemies into game

- add different chakram behaviours


Player sprite:


(enemy sprites)




Story / aim:

a 2D, top-down roguelike, where you are a rebel breaking out of a p̶r̶i̶s̶o̶n̶ ̶c̶a̶m̶p̶ ‘correctional detainment centre’ for dissidents and undesirables. You will attempt to liberate other rebels and fight the fash by using your Chakram throwing skills passed down by a sect of resistance fighters. Basically, fight for queer Liberation through defeating the authoritarian state.  🏳️‍🌈🌹🥏✊🏽

Thanks for reading this far! If you're interested in this premise, feel free to send me a message to let me know, I'm keen to continue this project when I can afford time on it and knowing there are people out there interested is a good incentive :-)

I love the chakram art and tag lines! Really great writing

Great work so far, please continue working on it!

It seems like it could be really interesting with the fire-and-forget nature of the mechanic, and its really mesmerising seeing them all creating patterns around you

I'd love to see that awesome player/enemy art in the game too!
