INFLUENCE

Welcome to INFLUENCE! You are a dictator in search for a group of followers to control with your latest mind control gun! However, it can be very difficult and you can get Out of Control!!!
Move with WASD. Shoot with left mouse click. aim with mouse

Attempt to control people by shooting them! If they turn green and follow you, they are under your control. Raise an Army! However if you fail to capture them, you will lose a lot of reputation, making it harder to capture them! You lose if you run out of reputation

Each "uncontrolled" person has a score above them, telling you how much reputation you will gain if you control them, but people with higher scores are harder to get! the game gets harder over time as the odds are more shifted towards higher scored people!

Once you surpass 75% reputation, you will start to earn points based on how many people you control! (your influence). Even if you have hundreds of followers it can be very easy to lose control, be careful!

there are also some settings! You can edit your volume, and enable a lag free mode, which removes much of the post-processing! (however there are no save files so things dont save after you restart the game)

The art was developed by my teammate ToastedToast! Here is his itch page:
