How to Play This Game

You control the Boy using WASD. Your objective is to collect as many Caps as you can. Each cap increments your score by one point. The game ends once you collect all of the caps, or you are eaten by a Bug.

The enemy bugs start off orange. In this stage, they wander around the map blindly. After an amount of time, the orange bugs will turn blue. Blue bugs are able to spawn more orange bugs at random, and will pursue the Boy more aggressively. After another amount of time, the blue bug will die and disappear off the map.

There are powerups scattered across the map that will give you an advantage. There are +10 powerups, which will add 10 to your score. There are also Batteries. After picking up a battery, the Boy will turn red for a short period of time. During this time the Boy becomes invincible and can eat bugs to increase his score. Powerups will spawn at random.

About This Game

This is my first ever CS project, developed in Spring 2016 as my final project for AP Computer Science. It's far from perfect, but an achievement nonetheless.

Known Issues

The game can get slow if there are many bugs on-screen at once.
