SyntheticDroneWars (PirateJam 16)

Win the drone war by killing all enemy drones and capturing their territory. Participation in 2025 Pirate Software GameJam 16As the drone, you are the weapon that defeats all enemies and rules the world.You control a drone who tries to overtake the world by killing all enemies and capturing their homebases (the tiles). For this, the drone has multiple laser-cannons attached. Shooting bullets will come with a cost - in this case the consumption of energy. Killing enemies and capturing tiles will gain energy and the player can recharge its energy by staying near the center of controlled tiles.The game is inspired by typical 90 arcade shooting games, thats why it is quite hard to master - compared to most nowadays games.Controls WASD for movementMouse for aiming + shootingSorry, gamepad support was not doable for me as a single dev in the short amount of time.
