An Unconventional Weapon

Take aim and take them down before they take over the beach. Armed only with antacids you recover from downed gulls and a vine hook, take back the beach.

Gameplay

Make your way across the dunes without getting stopped by a seagull or crab. Your only weapon: antacids. The only problem is, you have to get them out of the seagulls first. Hook a seagull to force it to crash land, blowing it up in the process. When a seagull crash lands, it will provide you with some ammo to take on the crabs. These things have been sitting in the seagull's stomachs for a while, so they're extremely volatile.

Controls

• A/D: Move left and right
• Space: Jump
• Left Mouse: Charge up and throw Antacid (if you have any)
• Right Mouse: Sling vine (use this to take down seagulls to harvest antacids)
• Left Shift: Sprint (if not encumbered)

Acquiring Ammo

Additional Ammo is acquired by downing seagulls. You cannot get more ammo by hitting a seagull with an antacid, that sets off a chain reaction that detonates all of the ones inside as well.
