Herding Cats
Game submitted for Xanderjam 4! Theme: Opposites
I had some fun incorporating this theme with the following play on it:
- Left Hand and Right Hand controls
- Cats and Dogs (also black / white coloring)
- Positive and Negative Charge (Developed algorithm to simulate positive and negative charges in a 2d plane. The players (dogs) charge gets stronger the longer you go without being hit and it helps you herd the cats.)

CONTROLS:
WASD for Lefty, IJKL for Righty
GOAL:
Save as many cats in 150s as possible.
Hope you enjoy! I really enjoyed the implementation of the charged particles simulation. Not sure how that turned into this bloody cat mess.

Lastly - if you use Construct 3 and you want to see how I created the blood effects / staining from these poor creatures check out the youtube video below (note I did this video prior to the jam and reworked it during the jam to work for the new game)
Notes: Much of the artwork was not produced by myself during the jam as I focused on the development of game.
