Asymberration

Fight your way through a limitless amount of aberrations, strategically spawned by another player, while solving a series of mini-challanges.

Very fun and intense when playing against a friend, but singleplayer is also an option.

Made for the Acerola Jam 0.

Controls for the ground player

- W, A, S, D to move
- Left-click to shoot
- E or F to interact
- Shift to run
- ESC to release mouse/exit fullscreen
- Left or right-click to capture mouse

Controls for the overview player

- Left-click to drag and drop aberrations from the bottom right corner onto a free space. You cannot place enemies too close to the player.

Notes:

- When playing the web version and your view keeps moving to the right -> use the fullscreen button, that should fix it. This is a bug in the Godot Engine.
- If the browser performance is bad for you, please consider trying the windows version. This is also a bug in Godot when enabling shadows on spotlights with the compatibility/web renderer. See the issue here.

- Browsers do not support LAN-based hosting, therefore the multiplayer is only available in the windows version.
- Using a service like Hamachi allows you to play against someone across the globe.
- The player that is hosting the game will be the player on the ground.
- Although a bug, it is possible for more than 2 players to join a host, each additional player gets their own overview and can spawn aberrations separately, quickly overrunning the ground player.

Why multiplayer?

Well, i messed up by not re-reading the rules when the jam started. I read them multiple times when the jam was announced and was sure that that rule wasn't in there, so i checked with wayback machine to make sure i hadn't just missed it. So yeah, that's on me. I noticed the rule toward the end and added a singleplayer mode that's just as challenging. I didn't want to not submit it as it took me 83 hours to make this.  (I know the exact amount as i planned to make a video/timelapse about it and recorded everything)
