The NEXUS; A mysterious alien planet shrouded by a thick, impenetrable fog. The worlds surrounding the NEXUS are connected by their beacons; ancient alien artifacts that are the key to unveiling it's secrets.

This game is an arcade shooter/platformer, focused on feel-good gameplay and terrain destruction.

This is my first time taking part in Ludum Dare. In fact, this is the first game I've ever completed. The code's a mess, and there are a couple of small bugs but nothing substantial. The hardest part has just been distributing it. Still working on an OSX and Linux wrapper. In the mean time, the Windows one should work, so long as you 'run anyway' when Windows tries to stop you. Apologies for the inconvenience.

I chose a simple 5-colour palette. And focused on "feel-good" shooting, platforming, and terrain destruction. It's pretty short, but the final level is something very different from the rest. And it's fairly challenging too!
