<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<. | TUTORIAL IN-GAME | '>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>' Description: A new take on becoming the bullet hell. Welcome to SWARM, a game loosely based on my previous project, Crowd Control. SWARM is an action-packed endless bullet hell based purely on skill and your will to survive.
Note: there is NO WAY to heal until you upgrade burst to max. WEAPONS AND PATHS Cannon --------- UPGRADES: 1. Bomb - Explodes on impact with an enemy. 2. Mine - Converts the Cannon into a Landmine. 3. Cleave - Massively enlarges the explosion radius of the Landmine. DATA: The Cannon is the first automatic weapon given in SWARM. The Cannon dissipates upon collision with an enemy and gains explosive properties when upgraded. Pellet --------- UPGRADES: 1. Pierce - Makes the Pellet pierce enemies. 2. Burst - Fires three five-round bursts. 3. Auto - Turns the Pellet into an auto shotgun 4. MIDAS - Each bullet has a 2% chance per hit to encase the screen in gold. The pellet is the primary spreadshot weapon. Its final upgrade can contain Midas's curse and use it to encase every on-screen enemy in gold. Spearhead --------- UPGRADES: 1. Precision - Shortens the spread of the burst, making it easier to hit one enemy twice. 2. Needle - Slows down upon piercing an enemy, dealing mass damage, instant-killing most of its targets. 3. Bloodlust - Each bullet has a one-time 50% chance to heal the player for one health. The spearhead, also called 'burst', 'needle', or 'icicle', is a pierce weapon that absorbs the blood of its target and then uses the blood to grow itself, allowing it to strike more victims. In its max upgrade, Bloodlust, it gains a chance to convert the blood into nutrients that give the player health. Axe --------- 1. Boost - The axe accelerates when it hits an enemy. 2. +Bounce - The axe gains an extra 2 bounces 3. Ballistics - The mouse can remotely control the axe before it bounces and explodes upon dissipation. The axe is a very peculiar weapon since it is the only one that can ricochet. In its final upgrade, it becomes a guided missile.
