You're The Boss
A downloadable game for Windows
Just your typical shooter game... except you're the boss!
Made for the 2023 GMTK Game Jam.
In order to defeat the hero, you will have to build spells using components you can buy using your accumulated score points. After the timer runs out or your health depletes, you will automatically use the spell you just built. You win if the hero loses all their lives, which you can see on the bottom left. You lose if all your health bars are gone!
Controls:
- Arrow keys -- movement
- Mouse -- spell selection
- Space -- progress dialogue
- Esc -- Pause
