This game was made for LoJam game jam in London Ontario. The theme was "From the outside looking in, it's hard to understand." I made the game solo.

I made a simple  2d bullet hell type spaceship game, but I added a 3d  cube with colour filters on them.. The result is that you can't see all the different bullets at the same time.. you can rotate the box around to change your limitation, but you will always have one.


 Bullets

Red bullets are bad they take life.

Green bullets are good the give life.

Blue bullets are good they give 20 points.


There are 3 levels each has a required points needed:

level 1 - 200 points

level 2 - 500 points

level 3 - 1200  points


Controls

The Cube is rotated clockwise and counterclockwise on its own axis with q/a, w/s, e/d keys. You control the ship with the mouse cursor.


Not much testing went in, not sure if it's beatable.

Uploaded a new version after the Jam, added config menu and made some adjustments.

I didn't get to do enough testing at all, I think I'll upload a more playable version, tighter, more responsive controls and lower difficulty.
