Phaser

Phaser is a game exploring the concept of constructive and destructive interference in the transmission of waves. You control a spaceship and your task is to survive and attack the enemy by matching his wave phase with the opposite of yours, thus causing destructive interference. If you do the opposite, the enemy only becomes stronger! Try to get as many points as you can. You lose more points than you would've gained if you hit an enemy with the opposite phase!

This game was made as an entry for the Global Game Jam 2018 and was written in 48 hours. For me, it was also an exercise to learn pico-8 and lua.
