Beam 'em up
Description:
Play as a mischievous alien on a mission to collect humans by scanning and abducting them! Sneak around, avoid detection, and complete your collection one scan at a time. How many can you gather before Earth catches on?
Scan the red circles to drain them completely — once drained, they will disappear. Each red circle represents a human hotspot.
Player Levels grow with the amount of humans you capture! So the more humans you capture the higher level.
To create friendly competition, post a screenshot of the game with your current level. Lets see who has the highest level! :)
Controls:
-
Move using the WASD keys
-
Press Spacebar to boost in the direction you're currently moving
Notes:
The tutorial may be buggy — but don’t worry! It’s currently in development and will be improved in future updates.
This game is still in the early stages of development and undergoing heavy testing. Expect updates, changes, and plenty of weird alien fun as the project evolves!

Thank you. Do you any ideas for future updates? I am always open to new ideas!
Hey! I played your game a bit and wrote up some notes. I think the initial premise and the art look fun! Nice work
Bugs / Feedback:
1. Game is not scaled when not full screen, having some UI cutoff.
2. Tutorial says right click, but you actually need to use left click and hold (?)
3. Sometimes the ray doesnt show when holding left click. Possibly need feedback when I am allowed to use the beam. Maybe the scanner changes color when allowed to use it.
4. I think an animation of the humans appearing, or make them come out of cars / houses could make it look more interesting.
5. Level feels a bit too long. Maybe first mission you catch a few, then you start catching more as time goes on or your UFO becomes more powerful.
6. Perhaps it might be fairer for the player if you get knocked back a bit can still use the scanner.
7. Sometimes when abducting the humans dissapear suddenly.
Questions:
1. Is there anyway to kill the tanks or can I only dodge them?
Looks like a fun project and I hope this helps :)
Thank you so much for the feedback! I will take all of this to note.
Answer to your question, as of right now you can only dodge the tanks.
