Our fifth entry of the Game Jam is Shoot the Monsters by 
Game Review
In this game, you control the machine gun at the centre of the screen, and your goal is to shoot as many monsters coming with you as possible. The machine gun basically will shoot wherever you click on the screen, so it is essentially an exercise of trying to click on the monsters when they appear.
Initially, the rate at which the monsters appear is pretty slow, so it is pretty easy to fend them off. But as time passes, more and more monsters start to appear in different directions, and you need to be pretty nimble to get rid of all of them. When the monster touches you, you lose health. And when your health bar reaches zero, you die.
And that is all there is to it! A very simple game play, but it is this simplicity that captivates me and makes it hard to stop. The UI is also simple, yet it feels natural and non-cluttered. The background has a simple design and colour scheme, yet it feels very elegant and pleasing. This game had pretty much nailed the art of simplicity and shows the power of simplicity at its best!
