Differences from initial game concept

Had to cut the upgrade system and Enemy variance due to time constraints

Tester Feedback

From user feedback i was able to gather that there none of my play testers had any issues in running the game and that it run smoothly as well. I was worried about the smoothness of the game as if too many enemies spawned in caused the game to lag I would have to try and make performance based changes, such as lowing enemy spawn rates. Because of this feedback i allowed myself to ramp up the spawn rates even more as the game progressed.

User Guide for Terminal Samurai

WASD = movement, regen stamina faster while standing still  

Spacebar = Short dash/blink towards your cursor that heavily damages enemies that you pass through (requires a lot of Stamina)  

Left mouse button = attack, damaging those in the red circle (requires Stamina)

To play this game skillfully you  must learn to balance your  offensive and defensive movements. this is because you must learn to play around your stamina while fulls its recommended you go full attack mode yet when it drops down its best to play on the defensive and kit mobs.

This is where you start your game game, click start game or controls depending on what you wanna do

This is the game itself note the corners for the UI elements.

On death you are taken to this screen where you may try again if you so wish.
