Roach-Like
A downloadable game
NOTE: After the deadline, we chose to tweak a few things back to the previous build of the game, before we nerfed the enemies into oblivion. Although the AI remains dumbed down due to performance reasons, the RoachLikePlus provides a few small tweaks to make the gameplay a little more difficult:
- Player's health reduced back to 10 from 30. Begins bleeding at the start.
- Ants cause bleeding damage. They are more than twice as fast.
- Cockroaches are more common. They are also stronger. Get ready to get ganked.
- Humans are still broken.
A game about a foolish little roach with a dream.
Sick and tired of feasting on indistinguishable shapes and polygons, the roach decided to embark on a perilous journey through a somewhat disgusting abode to obtain the fabled piece of CHEESE from within the kitchen. Equipped with nothing but a compass, sturdy body, and insatiable hunger, the little roach ventures on.
CONTROLS:
Move: WASD
Dash: SPACE
GAMEPLAY:
Your only weapon is dashing. While dashing, you are able to damage any nefarious bugs that dare to stand in your way.
You have a ravenous hunger, causing you to begin withering away if you don't eat any of the little shapes scattered on the ground.
Be wary of humans. They aren't particularly fond of bugs.
Use the little arrow guide to get to the CHEESE. Become roach-like.
