Alien Hunter

Genre: Console based guessing game.
Jam: Pure Text Jam

Synopsis

It's the year 2248, and humanity survived the AI uprising only to discover that through those chaotic years aliens had infiltrated human society. While most aliens have been extracted, there are still some who remain.

You are an alien bounty hunter! Use your tracker to find where the aliens are hiding and bring them to justice...and a nice fat bounty, of course!

Your tracker shows a 10x10 grid of where each alien is hiding. Enter the 2D co-ordinates into your tracking drone to scan the area for the hidden alien.

If the alien isn't there the drone will relay tracking information from the chemical trail or energy signal they leave behind.

Once you track the alien, you claim your bounty! The fewer moves to find the alien, the bigger your bounty.
