Protect the System from attacking entities in this run-and-gun side-scrolling platformer built using only primitive meshes (in this case, cuboids, triangular prisms, spheres, and dodecahedra prisms).  All connected objects are made up of 4 or less shapes.  There are no image textures used,  just standard 3d materials.

NOTE: Please evaluate based on the downloadable version. Due to shared-buffer limitations, the download version has better graphics than the web version.  If you play the web version, note that it will stutter for the first few seconds.

The game contains two levels and a couple of simple cut scenes. The first level is a tutorial to get comfortable with movement. The second level has a lot of entities to kill.

Original music was composed and sequenced using LMMS, and sound effects were generated using jsfxr. The game was built using Godot. All music and game software were developed during the Primitive Shapes Game Jam #3 period.

Game project files and source code are available on GitHub.
