Arc

Inspired by the 80s, when games were simple, fun (and a lot of neon) - Arc is a 3D flyer / shooter - can you reach the end and destroy the Core ?

Arc comes from the question that drives us, the question that brought us here......that thing I saw in another game, or maybe something I created, can I work out a way to code it myself. 

The answer with GameMaker Studio 2 of course is, Yes you can !

I wanted to try something in 3D. This is built from scratch using simple 3D objects and techniques (that I could understand). Of course that means there’s lots of things that can be improved, but that’s OK because I’m still learning.

My goal is to have fun and create a game I actually enjoy playing, a journey from Neon in level 1 to Neo in level 3.

I hope you enjoy it too. 

First time ever in a game jam !

-> v2 update: based on jam feedback, added alternative key and mouse controls and a sensitivity control setting. Enjoy ! Please get to level 3 for best visuals !

-> v2.1 update: more feedback ! Improved mouse controls. Mouse is now the recommended control method for Windows
