Overkill

Overkill is an endless upgrade, twin-stick shooter.  Built as a solo entry in 3 days for the NSCC Fall Warm Up Jam 2024.

The Theme of the jam was: Bad luck can be useful.
In overkill, when you get killed you get a multiplier based on how far below 0 you went. This takes luck into account as what enemies spawn is entirely random. So you get a run with mostly weak/fast guys you might last longer but get a lower bonus. If you get mostly slow/tanky guys you won't last as long but might get a 2x bonus for that run.

Includes, 3 different player starting load-outs, 3 upgrade options, and full controller support!
