heliostat

A nasty little prototype of a 1-bit mech combat game set on a space station in low solar orbit. For two players.

In heliostatic combat, it's critical to manage both structural damage and accumulated heat. While exposed to the sun, you'll gradually accumulate heat.

Player 1 (codename: "mario") is equipped with a directed energy weapon; the trigger must be held down until the weapon is fully charged before firing. WASD to move, mouse to look around, space to jump, shift to boost. Click to fire.

Player 2 (codename: "green mario") uses a standard-issue autocannon. Use the gamepad's left stick to move, right stick to look around, A to jump, X to boost. Right trigger to fire.

Made for Pirate Software Game Jam #15.
