Escape from Arachnea

Despair, foolish mortal! For you shall never Escape from Arachnea!

Escape from Arachnea is a retro rail shooter made for Ludum Dare 47.  Choose your weapon and battle an onslaught of spiders to claim your place at the top of the leaderboard! All you need to do is aim with your mouse.

The theme for Ludum Dare 47 is "Stuck in a loop". Behold the many loops of stuckness in this game:

• The player is forever stuck moving in a loop in the center of the screen!
• There is a big spiderweb in the background. Spiderwebs are sticky and full of loops!
• Though it looks like the player is moving toward the outside of the web, this is but an illusion! He is well and truly stuck.
• The developer actually remembered to turn on looping for the music this time!

This game was made in 58 hours by Wesley, Trevor, Greg, and Brian Humphreys. The entire game was created by the team during the game period with the exception of the leaderboard, which was created by Carmen T. Guida: https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/network/dreamlo-com-free-instant-lea...
