A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Escape from a pit of horrible alien rock bugs by carefully using the items in the level. And shooting. Quite a lot of shooting...

This is a top down 2D shooter, WASD or arrow keys to move, aim and shoot with the mouse, use items with the prompted number keys.
Explore the level to find usable items. Each may only be used once, so be careful.
There's also a "cute" blob thing to find.

Known bugs in version 0.9:

Some of the "water" stops bullets and I have no idea why. Someone help I can't fathom this one! (it was a random collider the sound designer made).
Sometimes the player drifts weirdly (I think the physics is going wrong somewhere).
Player movement animations aren't all working properly. I tried making it so that the player switches between a "walk" and a "strafe" depending on how they are moving relative to where they are facing. Turns out it's quite tricky.
Resolution options were added but they broke everything and are disabled. (tutorials aren't always perfect).
