Theme

Spirit Turret was made for the 16th Pirate Software game jam. The theme was "You are the weapon". As the King's spirit, you manually insert yourself into groups of turrets in order to power their attacks. By manually controlling the turrets you act as the weapon.

How to Play

The game is played by placing turrets, and then powering the turrets using the kings spirit. Do do this, grab the flame spirit and left click a turret with it. This will drop the flame, powering any turrets under it and turrets connected to the powered turret. To move the spirit, left click it to pick it up (or press Q).
