Description

Invasion of the Blobs was my entry for Ludum Dare 10.5. The game is a fast-paced space shooter, with five levels, then a boss! Unfortunately, the theme for LD 10.5 was "Weird/Unexpected/Surprise", so I had to think up a weird game. The storyline (below) is weird enough in itself, and shooting weird green blobs is kind of weird too. The difference between this release and the one on LD is I included music in this one. One note. The windows version is the competition version, so it doesn't have music.

Storyline

A satellite orbiting Earth detects a mass of weird lifeforms rapidly heading towards the sun, that seem to collect around a massive green lifeform. Alarmed, and taken completely by surprise, Earth deploys a top-secret spacecraft to destroy the weird mass of blobs, and the strange lifeform they collect around.

Dude this game rocks! It's awesome and very fun. I really like it. It could be the start point for a very interesting spaceship game. Suggestions: * Add a message when you start a new level * More powerups * Cool terror background music when the boss come ;) Overall a great game, congratulations! Keep up the work Regards
