Drone Wars

Drone Wars is an Arcade Shooter developed for LowRezJam 2019. The limitation that makes this game jam interesting is a 64x64 pixel max resolution! 

HOW TO PLAY

In all modes, WASD are used to control movement of your bee. In Versus and Free mode, use Left Mouse Click to fire your equipped weapon. In Versus mode you can only carry one weapon at a time. Use your mouse to aim your shots. Press ESCAPE in any mode to return to the title screen. 

VERSUS

In Versus mode, you control a lone drone on a mission to collect as many flowers as possible. Unfortunately, an enemy hive has sent a drone of their own to crash your pollen party. Collect as many flowers as possible and use a variety of power-ups to give yourself an edge:

 CROWNS give you a momentary speed boost

 MAGNETS are great for drawing bunches of flowers to your position

 SMOKE GRENADES are great for calming enemy bees.

 STINGER MISSILES are something to respect. When they strike a bee they permanently destroy a number of collected flowers and can turn the tide of a runaway match.

TIME

Timed mode is a fun but challenging alternative to Versus. Compete against the clock to collect 8 flowers spread out over the play area.

FREE

Free mode is a cathartic time-waster where you're given unlimited stinger missiles and a hive begging to be destroyed.
