The spider apocalypse has come. Giant spiders have infested the world! Ammo and food are in short supply...
Gun down arachnids, splatter their eggs and loot for food in this survival-horror inspired rogue-like shooter.
While this is a very short game, it was an exercise in systemic design for me as a dev.
I hope you find fun in exploring the variety of  AI interactions, environmental elements and chain-reactions that can occur if you play with a careful trigger-finger.

HOW TO PLAY:
Search room by room for food, collecting ammo and killing spiders as necessary.
Once you've collected all food, leave the current room to win.

  • Movement: ARROWS or WASD.
  • Shooting: MOUSE MOVEMENT to aim, LEFT CLICK to shoot.
  • Exit through any doors on the walls to proceed to next room.
    (the door you just entered through will be locked)

Ammo is limited; you don't need blast everything in sight. But the game is also short so exploring a variety of strategies the emergent interactions can be fun.


This game was make for the Alphabet Superset; a creativity challenge about making a new creative piece for each letter of the alphabet.

M is for 'mall'.
The mall thing kinda got lost, but the original inspiration was the idea of looting a mall during some kind of apocalypse.
