VOXION - Game for the Pirate Software - Game Jam 16

Use your voice, be The Weapon

In the depths of space, you awaken as a sentient weapon, harnessing the power of your voice to unleash devastating attacks and defend the galaxy from looming darkness.

Game is intended to be played on desktop browser, using keyboard, mouse and mouth (microphone). So please enable mic, when browser prompt you.

CONTROLS

WASD or ARROWS: Move ship
1: Bullet gun
2: Wave gun
letter O: Voice overlay

VOICE CONTROLS

Use your voice to shoot! Say bang, sing, talk, or scream. You Are The Weapon, so sound like The Weapon.

NOTE

If you are unable to use a Microphone. Press SPACE or LMB to simulate voice input

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
The game's core theme revolves around the concept that the player's voice is literally their weapon. This creates a unique connection between the player and the game, as their vocal input directly influences their success or failure. The theme is reinforced through. Player should act as The Weapon.

Player uses voice to shoot. So this is SFX for shooting! Fits theme greatly and lowers scope of development.

Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
Use different type of voice to play, have fun! Sing, talk, scream, practice notes, be creative.

Thank you! This is my first public game made from scratch and first game jam! Really great experience and I've learned a lot.

Voice as a weapon is super clever! Maybe there could be some type of config to tweak the sensitivity of the voice activation? My mechanical keyboard typing would cause the ship to shoot (it did make it easier though LOL).

Core game loop is fun. Making the game rounds was definitely the right move!

You can open with the letter O.

But you should equip a weapon you want to change, so basically it's lose to change weapon =(

This panel shows your input voice data in real time, I found it kinda cool

Damn I had not noticed that setting. I agree that UI is really cool!
