Alien defender

Entry to Trijam #284. Theme: "Build during the day, defend at night".

Game built in 3 hours and 7 minutes, just missed that deadline! It is a somewhat playable experience but given the timeframe I think the outcome is as expected. Built using C# and MonoGame.

All assets apart from the font were created by me during the jam (and you can tell I spent about 30 seconds on each).

Controls

• Arrow keys - movement
• Space - place TNT

Rules

• Every step you take progresses the clock by 30 minutes!
• Place TNT during the day to build your defences
• You get 5 TNT blocks every morning
• At night, creatures hunt you and move a step every time you take a step
• When the sun rises the creatures die
• Creatures moving over TNT get blown up
• If a creature reaches you, game over!
