Apatros Action 52 Masochist: Chapter 44 - Dedant

You're an ant sent to make a one-ant-army assault on a rival ant nest. Your only means of attack is to [do the real-life ant attack] of spitting formic acid. However, your targets have been alerted & have sent their defenses in to crush you. However you're a pretty crafty ant who has spied on humans playing cover shooters on those magical machines they call "computers" & so you have learnt a few things about using cover...

Dedant is an 8-bit equivalent of an arena shooter, where you have to wipe out the enemies that spawn in the playing arena. Your corridor, which you can technically leave at any time to enter the arena if you wish, has two safe zones at each end [bottom left & right corners] that completely protect you from everything - as long as you stay within that space [you can also teleport to the other corner simply by moving past the end of the corridor].

Not a terrible game, as you can possibly beat this using your wits [BTW if an enemy enters your corridor, simply wait in the nearest safe zone until they leave - don't worry about their shots hitting you as your safe zone will make the shot vanish as long as you stay inside that area], but not that great a game either. Using shock assault tactics in this particular game will get you a one-way ticket to insect Heaven... or food for the enemy ant queen's larvae.

My Grade: D+ [Disappointing]
