The Shotgun over Fishmouth is a reverse bullet-hell action roguelike with a Lovecraftian twist.

This is the Alpha (0.2.0) of Shotgun over Fishmouth. Everything is subject to change.

Premise

Billy Bob, a redneck who defies natural selection and lives on the outskirts of civilization in Florida is practicing for the Redneck fishing tournament in Illinois. 

He accidentally throws his favorite bottle into the ocean, as he goes out to reach it a tentacle grabs him and drags him to the bottom. 

Billy goes on a warpath, with his trusty shotgun in hand, and his sights set on the extra-dimensional entity beyond his very limited comprehension who stole his moonshine.

Gameplay

The player can move with WASD / Arrow keys.

The goal is to become as powerful as you can before the timer runs out.

The player automatically targets nearby enemies.

When an enemy dies, they drop XP which you can pick up.

Picking up enough XP gives you a level.

Once you can level up press TAB to choose a new ability

Use the fishing rod (mouse) to catch fishes or catch xp/healthpacks
