Chroma Slash

Incomplete game made for TU's 2023 Athena Jam for the randomised theme 'Sharp + Balance'. There is no audio and you can fall through the floor sometimes softlocking the game (but that's because of the crappy character controller I used). Bugs are less prominent in the downloadable windows version.

Rules:

• There are three colour elements in the game - Red, Green and Blue.
• All weapons and enemies belong to one of these elements.
• Killing enemies using a weapon of a certain colour increases the balance value of that colour.
• When one colour's value dominates the other two, enemies of that colour become more aggressive and powerful.
• Killing enemies with a weapon that matches their colour increases the balance of that colour twice more than usual.
• The objective is to maintain as much balance between the three colours as possible to consistently tear through as many waves of enemies as you can.
• When HP drops to 0 it's game over

Weapons:

• Katana: Damages enemies in a large melee range. Can be used in mid air to attack downwards and bounce off enemies to gain extra height.
• Dart Gun: Fires a single ranged projectile that only hits one enemey.
• Bow: Fires a weak projectile that can be charged up to shoot a more damaging piercing shot to multiple enemies
• Sawblade: Mid-ranged throwing weapon that can be held in place by keeping the attack button held down. Deals constant damage to all enemies it touches

Controls:

• Move: A and D/Left and Right Arrow Keys
• Jump: W / Up Arrow / Spacebar
  • (jump again in mid-air to double jump, jump when touching a wall to wall jump)
• Attack: U/Z

I made all the graphics except for the tileset which I can't remember where I got it from. I animated the really well animated player character that has a really good run animation myself.
