Remake of the original Lost Beacons game that participated in 2017 js13kGames competition here.
I've smoothed some corners and added a few features.
Here is a short list of improvements made to the game:
- Improved overall performance
- Caching font characters
- Optimized AI units management
- Invisible objects (e.i. those that aren't in viewport) aren't rendered
- Design
- Cursor:
- Replaced browser cursor by the in-game one (canvas-rendered)
- Borderless selection rectangle
- Redesigned & simplified minimap
- Simplified main HUD (below the screen)
- Colors of map now dynamically changed on every new game level
- Maps now have no obstacles on the borders
- Cursor:
- Gameplay:
- Wins indefinitely if all beacons are captured
- New units: Destructor, Killer, Beast
- Empowered and balanced AI performance
Please don't worry if you find something is missing.
Several features from the original game were intentionally turned off due to
performance loss.
