Controls: WASD to move, left click to shoot, right click to fire the parasite.

This game was made for the Pirate Software Game Jam 16

(Note: Turns out the overshield on the second parasite trait is pretty buggy and has a number of issues, but everything with the first parasite trait works fine. We recommend playing with the first trait over the second!)

In Grey Splatter, you take control of a bioweapon in the form of a parasite. This parasite can infest other creatures, take control of them, and transform them into weapons. Each enemy has its own unique attack for you to use when you infest it, so experiment and see what you like best!

There are two parasite traits available to choose from. Both traits have unique "On Infest" and "On Death" effects tied to them. On Infest effects are triggered anytime you infest a new creature. On Death effects are triggered when you eject from a creature after their health has gone below the On Death threshold.

If you try to jump on another creature and miss, the parasite will fall to the floor. After 1 second you can jump again, but until then you're unable to do anything but move around to dodge projectiles and attacks.

Thanks for playing!
