You are Weak... What if You could avoid death? Thanks to Your neighbour - You can.

Entry for libgdx jam 29, theme "Time travel".

It is suggested to play with a pad. Note that only with pad connected extra options will be shown in menu to allow hot seat (button have to be pressed on the pad so browser can notice its presence).

Controls in order of precedence (when pad is connected):

Pad - left axis movement, right axis shoot. L/R shoulders - change weapon. START/SELECT for options.

Onscreen keyboard - if selected from menu, use only for mobile.

Keyboard - WASD movement, left mouse button to shoot, scroll to change weapon, "Q" to options.

IMPORTANT INFO:

1. Collect weapons stepping on the defeated gangsters

2. There is autoswitch of weapons, so if You suddenly have worse weapon - change it for a better one that You surely have in the backpack.

3. Game is beatable, but You must use time travel functionality wisely (let Your previous runs clean the level, but try not to interfere - You can easily harm or push Your previous runs and change the past!).

4. Game is won when the boss, lurking at the end of the level, dies.

5. Gangsters usually shoot at sight if You are in their close range, and then You have 2/3 of a chance that they will just follow You. They do not walk and shoot at the same time,

6. Beware of folks with plasma gun and rocket launcher. Plasma will drain Your health in like one second. Rockets are not as deadly, but direct hit will hurt.

7. Play with a pad. Seriously.


PS.

I didnt have time to draw levels so those are just vectors :/ 


Reuploaded 25.06.2024,

fixed win bug (after a win run, the game was unplayable, as time travel functionality broke), removed unused sound fxs, hopefully fixed right mouse button.

Reuploaded 26.06.2024,

Great work and choice of music and sfx to set the mood. And there's nothing wrong with vector lines to build a map sets a nice style, hehe. Gets pretty difficult as well.  Great entry!

Interesting controls : )

WOW what a cool concept! I think I got far, but certainly not to the end I need more skill! I enjoyed it Ret-Mode :3
