Greasy Giants is a simple pixel twin-stick shooter that pits you against gigantic fast-food enemies. Clutch to your trusty soda gun and take on wave after wave of giants.


HOW TO PLAY

  • Play Classic mode and face three (3/3) waves of Greasy Giants. Emerge victorious by defeating them all! Additionally, Endless mode is available if you want more challenge (more enemies will show up for every wave).
  • Your weapon is a soda gun, a colorful tool that can be loaded with four different soda flavors. 
  • Every flavor corresponds to a particular giant's health bar, so choose your flavor wisely. For instance, using lemon soda will deal extra damage to the giant's yellow health bar.
  • The flavors all have a limited juice supply.



CONTROLS

  • WASD to move your character.
  • Shift to activate a quick sprint. It comes with a regenerating stamina bar.
  • Hold the left mouse button to shoot.
  • Press the corresponding number (1, 2, 3, or 4) of the soda flavor you want to switch to.
  • Esc to pause the game.


KNOWN ISSUES

  • Freezing screen.

If the issue persists and you're playing on the browser, consider downloading the program and playing the game there.

Hey! Just letting you know that me and a few friends are speedrunning this game for a little event we're doing. I don't wanna link it in case it counts as spam but you could share your discord if you wanna join/spectate!

That sounds really fun! I would be happy to see you all play :) I'm not sure if my schedule will allow me to watch you guys. Please refer to @macburg, thanks!

how did you get all your assets and everything to all be in just one exe?

a bunch of game engines let you do that I think

For Godot, you just toggle the Embed PCK option.
