Summer Coding Competition: Brewbot Battle

Brewbot Battle is JC‘s entry to the Summer Coding Competition from QJ and Liksang. The premise for this homebrew LUA game is as follows:

“The Tyrannical Sony Corporation has unleashed its ultimate weapon in its war on Homebrew, Brewbots. Brewbots have been designed to strike at the heart of the homebrew scene by attacking homebrew as it’s loaded. Luckily you have a friend. Saoirse (Pronounce Sheer-Sha, Irish for Freedom), like her name suggests she believes in freedom and she is willing to help you fight the Brewbots. As each phase of the homebrew load starts the Brewbot will attack. You must ensure that all letters of the load phase remain intact for the duration of the load timer. If too much of the phrase is destroyed then the timeout timer will start,
Once it reaches zero the load will fail and the game is over.”

Controls
Use the Down-arrow to pick up the letter you are over, use Up-arrow to throw it.
Use X to fire

Bonus
You will get a bonus for spelling the word Homebrew on the left hand side of the screen.
