Limits
An arena shooter with a memory budget.
The world runs on 16k of RAM. Every game entity has memory cost. A full memory makes the Garbage Collector angry.
ArenaShooterGameJamWebGPU2.5DAbout Limits
Limits is an arena shooter where the game has to fit in 16 KB of memory. Floor tiles, enemies and bullets all cost bytes for as long as they exist.
If the memory fills up, the Garbage Collector comes after you. You fight off waves of enemies while keeping your allocations under control, and you survive as many waves as you can.
