Snake Missiles overview

SNAKE MISSILES 

INTRODUCTION

The game was developed as a submission to the Kenney Game Jam 2019, with "Unlikely combinations" as a premise. 
The idea was to put together two different gameplay genres, in our case a Side Scroller and a Snake-like game. 

GAMEPLAY

Shooting the rocket will spawn one rocket part, making your rocket bigger and more powerful as you collect more parts. 
The rocket part count is always visible on top of the screen. 
 

HOW TO PLAY

Shoot the rocket     -   spacebar
Control the rocket   -   arrow keys 
When you think you've got enough rocket parts,  lead the missile to the alien and blow him up!

TOOLS USED 

Construct 2.0

"When we read the theme Unlikely Combinations, we started thinking about the possible combination of two different gameplays. Kenney's assets led us to develop a sort of scrolling shooter combined with the classic Snake. 

The player must shoot at the enemy but, before hitting him, must recover the pieces of missile scattered around the screen, once reached a certain number can direct the shot to the enemy to destroy it.

It took us a long time -- too long -- to develop, perhaps by making a mistake in managing the time available to us. 

But let's hope you enjoy the effort: maybe in the future we'll be able to fix it heavily and implement all the features we had in mind to insert :) 

Thanks!"
