Ghost Heavy is a retro inspired shmup. I made this for GDKO 2025. The task was to create a game with 2 mechanics. For mechanic 1, you can shoot by holding the left mouse button. For mechanic 2, you can hold the right mouse button to enter ghost mode which allows your to move through enemy ships and bullets.

CONTROLS - WASD for movement, LMB to shoot, RMB for Ghost Mode.

Your ship has 20 hit points, you have 50 ghost energy. Use the energy wisely as for now there is no way to gain more. The goal is the destroy the enemy boss ship.

That's the basics of the game that is still in development. There is a lot more that I will be adding the game in the future. There is still a lot of things that could use some polish but I feel that for the game jam I have done enough at this point.

Thanks for playing and I look forward to you feedback.

Cool! It was a little bit difficult, but I managed to defeat the boss :D (it was before I noticed there was a ghost mode). Just a tiny suggestion, it would feel even more rewarding if the boss's defeat had more juice, instead of just disappearing. In the end, amazing game! Keep up the good work!
