Influence

After entirely too long of a hiatus from this site, I’m back with my next project. And no, it’s not Muse. Again. Surprise. I guess everybody needs their own Duke Nukem/Spore clone.

It’s actually far worse that that. I’ve sold my soul to the devil and decided to create a shooter.

It’s not really a “shooter” in the generic sense, though, since you don’t really do any shooting. In lieu of shooting, the grid is now the weapon. And the only weapon. You can “shoot” pulses through it to knock enemies into each other or off of the grid completely. Larger, limited bomb-like pulses rip pretty much everything up in seconds when things get a little too hot and heavy. And destroyed enemies caused their own ripples in the grid when they explode, pushing more enemies into each other and off the edges. It gets pretty chaotic ^^.

Not really sure how far into the project I am, I’d say maybe 33% or so. A lot of it depends on how much eye candy I add later on.

Anyway, check out the screenshots below, they’ll give a better idea of what’s going on.
