SMITE ME!

In SMITE ME! the player attempts to anger the gods so much that they send extinction level events your way to smite you. The goal is to reach 100% anger as fast as possible. You decide how risky you’ll play. Do you take it slow and steady? Or do you go all in for a faster time?

To achieve maximum anger, the player steps on holy ground and obtains heretical texts. These actions cause different attacks and provide different amounts of points.

Attacks include:

Lightning: By merely existing the player is constantly targeted by lightning strikes. These provide a minimal anger bonus when survived and merely serve to keep the player moving.

Flood: Being on holy ground for too long causes a flood. These can come in from 3 directions and require the player to jump over them. They provide a medium amount of anger points when survived.

Meteorite: Obtaining the heretical text makes the gods send down a meteorite. A large area of the stage is in imminent danger. Once the meteorite lands it produces an additional shockwave that should be jumped over. Meteorite impacts offer high anger bonuses if survived.

This jam game was based on the prompt "Extinction".
