HEATWAVE

Take control of a hot wind tornado, and slash and explode cold enemies with your heatwave! But beware, every shot makes you smaller, so hurry up and fight hard to regain charge!

Will you reach the final boss!?

About

HEATWAVE (temporary title) is a fast-paced top-down shooter with atmospheric levels.

It's my entry for the June/July Jackpot Jam, with for theme... Well, "heatwave" :)

This game will contain several levels, but for the jam I'll focus only on the first level and polish it.

I didn't have the time to implement sounds effects unfortunately :( but I'll surely come back to this game after some time, so stay tuned for an update!

Screenshots and maybe trailer coming soon!

Current gifs are outdated but the gameplay is the same uwu

Gameplay

• Shoot enemies! Beat'em and you regain charge!
• Every shoot consumes you, your heatwaves are coming from the hot wind you are made of!
• Enemie's shots consumes you as well! Lose all your charge and you'll vanish like smoke!
• On the other hand, beat all enemies to progress in the level!
• If you survive to the all enemies' waves, you encounter the boss!
• Beat the boss and get a new even stronger hotwave!

This Is a Jam Game

That means, it's not well-balanced, polished nor optimized -- though it's winnable. And obviously it's not finished yet.

But that also means you can suggest any feature or improvement since it's still very young :)

This project is on hold for now. But I'll sure come back to it, I have big ideas for it and I think it has potential!
