Ticks is a very small and very retro, shooter game. Chaotic but also strategic! Your job is to pick up all the drops of blood and deny your opponent(s) from doing the same while throwing bombs and avoiding bombs. As you gorge on more blood you get fatter and slower.  When time is up or when all the blood drops on the board are picked up, the game is over. The player who collected the most blood is the winner.

Somewhat of a mix between Snake, Pacman and Bomberman? Perhaps there is a better analogy. Suffice to say that this game has a strong early 80s feel to it.

It looks quite simple at first glance but it is actually quite complex and difficult to master, with several different things to keep track of simultaneously. It should be quite playable on both PC and touch screens.

My personal thoughts on the project:

It is an idea I've had for a long time and now I finally decided to create it. The idea was to create something as simple, yet original, as possible, with replay value. It became somewhat more advanced than the original idea but not by much. The game is very similar to my original concept that popped into my head a bunch of years ago.  And I am quite happy with the final result. I hope that you will enjoy it.  All feedback is appreciated.
