Spots and Mobbers
A downloadable Roguelike
You're a Ladybug, who's duty is to defeat as many aphids as possible:
Your energy starts at 30 and drains by 1 every second
Use WASD to move in 8 directions - up, left, right, down, diagonal
Run into aphids to collect them and gain 4 energy
The Max energy is 60, if you happen to accumulate enough
Spiders spawn in randomly, they are programmed to spawn in front of paths and in general spaces. Spiders then leave after a couple of seconds
If you run into a spider you lose 5 energies every half-a-second whilst you're within the spider's reach
Before spiders spawn in, the spider's shadow is cast over the area to give you a brief heads-up, don't worry, you can walk through the shadows with no penalty.
For every 5 aphids you collect, your "boost" value will increase by 1. If you press the Space Bar when you have at least 1 boost point, you will consume the boost point and your travel speed will temporarily increase for 6 seconds.
GOAL: Collect as many aphids as you can before your energy runs out
TIP: Some aphids may be trapped on paths blocked by spiders, think carefully for what you should do in this situation, what would be most cost effective use of your energy?
- waiting for the spiders to leave?
- going around longer paths? - bulldozing through the spider?
(a speed boost may help when traveling long distances or in escaping a spider's barrage of attacks faster when passing through)
