About This Game
Armed and Gelatinous is a 2D multi-player couch-competitive bullet-hell arcade-style space-shooter from Three Flip Studios, the independent developer behind Influent.

Blobs in Space!
World Peace has finally been achieved! Planet Earth has painstakingly loaded every last remaining weapon onto a massive rocket and sent them off into oblivion never to be seen again. That is, until a peaceful race of space blobs gets a hold of them and goes absolutely trigger happy! They’re Armed and Gelatinous!!!

Collect, Grow, and Fight!
With each weapon collected your blob’s mass grows, along with its destructive power! A massive blob has its advantages and disadvantages as you benefit from increased health but suffer a loss in speed and agility. Not all hope is lost when facing off against a mighty foe. A baby blob can always utilize the powerful Dash Attack to steal weapons or even take down your opponent at full charge! Blast or dash your way to victory!!!

Friends and Controllers Required
Armed and Gelatinous is designed for classic Arcade Play that is easy to pick up but difficult to master. People of all ages can take on their friends or family in epic battles that are fine-tuned to be enjoyed for short play sessions at a party or your local watering hole. As such, there is no single player mode and no network play. Most standard 4 button controllers should be compatible. Shout out to Guavaman!
