Time Leech

Controls:  -movement = WASD/arrow keys,   -shoot = LMB,   -pause = ESC

Premise: Time leech is an arcady bullet hell where your life is on a timer. You start with one minute left to live, but you can extend your life by defeating enemies and absorbing the time they drop. The first 15 minutes consist of handcrafted waves, with both you and your enemies growing stronger over time, after which endless random waves will come to end your run! How long can you survive?

Music: Due to the playtime and replay-centered gameplay loop of this game, I opted not to make a repeating soundtrack, but I HIGHLY RECOMMEND playing some Drum and Base (or something similar) of your choosing for an elevated experience :)

Goal: I am a solo developer for all of my projects. For this game jam my goal was to polish a simple mechanic as much as I could, and make it feel good to play! Although there were many features I still wanted to add (more particles, hitstun, more major upgrades). I would love to hear your feedback in the comments down below, but thank you for playing either way!
