In what way does your game fit the theme?
My game is based on crypto as well as being kinda PCG (random) for gameplay. Cryptocurrency is very volatile. I think it fits the "Let there be chaos" theme.
CONTROLS: WASD movement -- LMB fires blaster --- RMB --- fires missiles
Your health is also your ammo.
Crypto that moves in formation and fires at you are enemies.
Crypto floating on their own (that don't shoot) + cryptonauts are pickups -- do not shoot but collect.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
There are some utility classes like a pooling system that I didn't write. The audio for the most part I did not create, however, I have the legal right to use these along with any code. The art is created by me, however, in some cases I have utilised references -- you won't find the final art anywhere else other than in my game.

Amazing game, extremely polished. I like use of cryptocurrencies a lot, very original concept. One thing you should add is in-game tutorial, not everyone reads game description on itch. Great job, well done, keep it up! :)
Yeah, definitely will be adding some kind of how-to-play for the next update.
That was an awesome polished game and the theme perfectly got fit. Gret idea buddy.
You Can Try Our Game . And Rate it .Thank You
Thanks for playing and rating!
This looks so good! I'm a fan of crypto so this was tons of fun :D I loved shooting them and seeing the Number Go Up, the game was super well done. I love the feedback when we shoot, especially with all the explosions. You really hit the chaos theme on its head. I'd appreciate it if you dropped a rating on our game if you have the time to play it as well!
Thanks for playing and rating!
Yeah, I think perhaps the theme is lost on most people as they have limited knowledge of crypto. Glad to see that those in the know about crypto can see the appeal of it and how it works with the chaos theme.
A nice and polished game! I think the missiles should be more forgiving as they often exploded behind the enemy crypto formation, killing only one or so. It feels very good to get a bunch of binances and become a machine shotgun. Game juice levels are high. Good job!
Thanks for the praise and feedback! Yeah the missiles probably need some more work, as you really need to get the timing right. They do explode on impact with the ships -- and meteorites, which will blow them up -- but these things only happen with a direct hit. I might play around with making this more generous, by requiring the player be less precise with it in effect.
Cool take on the theme! art is gorgeous! Love it
Thanks for the kind words!
