-iNVERTED Nights at Lil Guy's Pizza Pies

"fnaf style mascot horror game, but played in reverse"

have you ever played a mascot horror game, and in the back of your mind wondering something like "what do They see? what's Their experience like?"

no? that's a weird thought to have? well uh, i'll try to sell this idea to you some other way then

introducing -iNVERTED Nights at Lil Guy's Pizza Pies!

a "mascot horror game", minus the horror (unless you count the jank from this being made in 3 days as horrific), where you play as the mascots!

you play as Lil Guy, Nickle, Mojo, and Trumpet, and switch control between each of them in order to strategically and quickly kill the newly hired security guard!

but be careful! each "animatronic" has an incredibly inefficient CPU, meaning that too much movement will cause them to overheat and temporarily stop functioning!

you must masterfully swap between each character in order to achieve your goal

made for the 2024 PolyMars x ScoreSpace game jam!

features:

- quake-inspired movement

- FOUR playable protagonists

- "strategic gameplay"

- "tutorial"

- an original drum and bass OST i composed in like 2 hours

meet the cast!

Lil Guy
the star of the show, can move the furthest before overheating, has special access to the Generator Room

Nickle
the second animatronic, isn't too fast but has a spray can filled with cooking oil which is slippery and lets you go faster while running over it!

Mojo
another animatronic, very slow, but crucially has a drill which can disable cameras that block off crucial portions of the map

Trumpet
the special one, has the ability to break down the security doors, which you will need to do in order to kill the security guard!

meet the end of this description!

have fun (:
