Atomic Rock Paper Scissors
Note: this is the post-event version of the game. For the Ludum Dare 49 Game Jam, please consider the original release.
A weird strategical action-puzzle game created for the Ludum Dare 49 Game Jam, and expanded post-event.
It's missing a leaderboard (coming soon? leave requests below), but it's playable! :D
To be remade & brought to your mobile devices!
How to play
- Click on rock/paper/scissor pieces to select/deselect them.
- When a piece is selected, click on a row/column to send it "attacking" in that direction. Attacks follow the rock paper scissors rules.
- Taking pieces gives you points and increases the nuker bar, and the bigger the combo the more points and nuke bar you get from it.
- If an attack chain ends with your piece taken, you get penalized for half the points, plus the metal bar increases.
- Once the nuke or metal bar are filled, a nuke or metal block will drop in the next move.
- Detonate nukes by placing them at the end of an attack combo chain. The bigger the attack chain triggering the bomb, the larger and more powerful the explosion. (For example, a combo of 4 creates an explosion of size 4.)
- Metal blocks can only be destroyed by explosions, and gold blocks require explosions of size at least 4.
- The metal bar fills automatically for every move, so the more efficient you are the better the final score.
- You have a fixed number of moves per difficulty level. After you run out of moves, the difficulty level increases and the metal bar increases faster and faster. Making a lot of small moves means you'll get too many metal blocks and too little nukes, so be careful!
- There are no crazy automatic combos! You are in full control of everything, so be strategical with how you clear spaces for nukes and metal blocks!
- Press S at any time to disable screen shake.
