PSA: As of Chrome 42 (Released April 14th), NPAPI plugins are disabled by default! That means Unity Player, Java, and Silverlight games will not work in the Chrome browser! That said, Flash in the Chrome browser continues to work fine (PPAPI).
To Developers: Consider using HTML5 and WebGL instead. Having troubles with the export? Don’t worry. See Ports below.
To Players: A workaround is to enable NPAPI plugins in your Chrome settings. Click or Copy+Paste this URL in to a tab:
As of September 2015 however, this option will no longer be available.
Other browsers (Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari) and Flash are unaffected, but FWIW there is no Unity Player or Silverlight for Linux.X
RAM is an arcade style space shooter, with a twist! You can't actually shoot - only the infinite waves of enemies hurtling towards you can! You're gonna die soon, all you can really do is crash into as many enemies as possibe before you befall your unfortunate fate.
Enemies are spawned every Astronomical Unit (AU) and act as waves. Killing certain enemies will reward you points, and killing the yellow enemy will give you an extra life and 5000 points.
Controls:
WSAD - Move
Mouse - Navigate Menus
Browsers:
For best results (and sexy bloom shader), use Chrome.
Tested on Chrome, and Firefox.
Incompatible with Internet Explorer.

Any and all feedback is encouraged! :)

Pretty nice, I like the fact that you actually have to crash in the enemies though is kinda hard at some point. Nice job mate :D now brb I have some unfinished business with those spaceships xD
nice excecution~! love the simple art style~! splendid job!
Gets repetitive quickly, but the game plays fine and looks polished other than the fact that it could have been more fun. :)
Good job, love the graphics, but the background should move slower, it hurts my eyes after some time :D.
Nice concept and well executed. Can be kinda cheated by staying at one side of the screen. Great graphics and mood!
I thought it was a good game, but the background moved to fast. It hurt my eyes after a while
Awesome color palette and artistic style. The colors in the menu seemed a bit off compared with in-game look.
The game has a good feel to it. The music contributes with a feeling og purpose of urgency.
I liked the variety in enemy formations.
Liked:
- Cool bloom effects, unified colour scheme
- Nice soundtrack!
Disliked:
- Controls felt sticky
- Repetitive game-play: possible to stick to the edge and only hit enemies after they shot
This is fun, it would be cool with bonuses for crash chaining

Mini Submission FAQ
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
Looks and plays great! A bit laggy on my end, but nothing else seems wrong!
