Patchy 1.4: Shopkeeper, Mine-Tweaks, Catalan
You can now unlock two NPCs who sell weapons/time (via upgrade in the chocolate store)!
I did several changes to the mines to make them more different from missiles and the rainbow of love. Because they were ejected into random directions, auto-piloted pretty fast toward an enemy and also did splash damage even when they did not hit anything (timeout) they felt too similar to missiles (because of their movement) and even the nova (because of all the splash damage). Therefore, I made these changes:
You can now see the total chocolate and also the chocolate collected during this session in the UI.
Catalan is now available thanks to Projecte 'Ce Trencada'!
I spend a lot of time to keep high FPS, even during the overtime period (where more enemies appear). I hope everything runs smoothly on your machine!

Weapon/Time Shopkeeper
You can now unlock two NPCs who sell weapons/time (via upgrade in the chocolate store)!
- You can trade 256 chocolate for a random weapon or 1 minute more time.
- If you buy time: More enemies will appear during the overtime-period! Also, the list in the end screen now shows your longest session time record.
- The shopkeepers will appear close to your start location.
- You can buy weapons/time as long as you have enough chocolate.
Weapon Tweaks
I did several changes to the mines to make them more different from missiles and the rainbow of love. Because they were ejected into random directions, auto-piloted pretty fast toward an enemy and also did splash damage even when they did not hit anything (timeout) they felt too similar to missiles (because of their movement) and even the nova (because of all the splash damage). Therefore, I made these changes:
- Mines are ejected toward the back of the ship (instead of random directions)
- Mines don't do splash damage when they time out but only when they hit something
- Mines do more damage (Mine 1.0: 15->30; Mine 2.0: 30->40)
- Mines have a splash damage radius doubled (50.0->100.0)
UI
You can now see the total chocolate and also the chocolate collected during this session in the UI.

Explore a colorful, tiny universe. Help its cute inhabitants solve their problems. Use satisfying weapons to defend you and your new friends against hordes of quirky enemies. You can focus on controlling your shipy while shooting happens automatically. There are unique landmarks to discover, and enemies leave experience points for level-ups to gain new skills. In addition, you can mine chocolate asteroids to unlock permanent upgrades.
- Short (2-4h). No Filler-Content. Made with Love.
- Unlock permanent upgrades with chocolate (so that losing a run does not feel like wasted time).
- Cute characters with small quests.
- Satisfying combat thanks to "BOoM", "PFRZZzz" and other cool effects.
I drew a lot of inspiration from other games, and here are the most important ones:
- Vampire Survivors for the general simple (but awesome!) gameplay
- Binding of Isaac for physicality of bullets
- Halls of Torment for adding Quests to a Vampire Survivors-Like
- Fallout for the story summary at the end of the game
- Into the Breach for the little NPC dialog texts which add so much atmosphere
Hey, I'm Simon and I made this game because I love cute graphics, "Survivors"-Likes and Sci-Fi. Unfortunately, many space games are too complex and too time-consuming for me, so I wanted to make something lighter. I also like, when games respect the player's time and are rather short than stuffed with filler-quests. I hope you like my little project, let me know! :)
