Nachtbeestjes

What is this?

This is an unfinished prototype from 2019. I was playing Creeper World and Qix at the time and the prototype mutated from initially something like a tower defense game to something more like Qix (at least the idea of what I was going to build).

It won't be finished anytime soon, so I'll leave it here in case someone finds it interesting. It breaks in many (and sometimes interesting) ways.

Goals

There's a day/night cycle. During the day you can only build and during the night you defend your base against some critters... from another dimension?

When the idea was more of a tower defense game you had to to build a power grid which would power some turrets to defend your base during the night.

When the idea was more of Qix, you build only one type of interconnected buildings and when you create a closed region that surface is counted toward a theshold that if reached, you pass the level.

Current state

Only one type of building can be constructed (the power generators) and when the night comes, you can call for help giving some coordinates for a missile strike. 

Controls

• cursor keys: move the map view
• mouse left button: (during the night) move the construction team
• mouse right button: during the day, start building a power generator, during the night, mark a spot for a missile strike.

This is an unfinished prototype, there are a lot of bugs and a lot of functionality is missing.
