A new weapon: Splitter

A direct hit does a small damage, but every next split increases it like 4->6->10, meaning it is much more effective when not aiming directly at your target.

The bots are programmed using the in-game behavior configuration

Not sure if I'll finish in time, but my Ebitengine gamejam game is basically cave story + mario & luigi superstar saga (you control both characters at the same time).

It's kinda hard, but actually really fun!

🔊 on for gamejam BGM

日本で盛り上がりつつあるゲームエンジンには,このほかにも数多くのものがある。選択肢を増やせば,作品の幅も広がるかも

It is a gamble to upgrade a game engine mid-development.

I was lucky that I mostly had to deal with font rendering alignment issues after the upgrade. Overall, #ebitengine rarely breaks stuff.

If you know about the breaking changes, would you upgrade an engine while working on a game? #indiedev
