Even more prototypes! Or rather.. A jam, in this case! Made for Ludum Dare 56, you play a desperate, depressed guy whose bedroom is invaded by cute, blue creatures
At the end of his rope, you can only stomp 👀

Our programmer is making a game called Share Wars, and has started a devlog over at the official Godot forums! Give him a follow so that he feels the pressure 🗜️ to actually finish the game. 😄 @mandarin.bsky.social https://forum.godotengine.org/t/share-wars-have-fun-bankrupting-your-friends/87328
