Introduction

In Bingus: REQUIEM, you play as an AI, created by a mysterious, malevolent being, programmed with only one protocol... to control the population of small, plant-like alien creatures only known as "Bingus". Your aim is is to keep the population within a certain threshold for as long as you can, using the tools given to you to aid in your task.

Mechanics/ Controls

• Click-and-Drag/WASD - Move around the map
• LMB - Select/Use weapon
• Mouse Wheel - Zoom
• ESC - pause game

The tools at your disposal:

• Bombs: Have too many Bingus in one place? Blow 'em up!
• Laser: More controlled than the bomb, but can still wipe out plenty of Bingus.
• Food Stalls: Bingus have to eat. Provide them with food to survive.
• Fire: Too much food is bad. Get rid of it.

Every tool at your disposal requires food to use- better not run out...

Also, Bingus are living their own lives, and may incur strange random events, so be ready!

Story

For many years, the Bingus lived in harmony- a heavily populated planet, but still peaceful. That is, until Purge-a-Tron (you) appeared in the sky one day. Without knowledge as to why, or even what the task given is meant to accomplish, but those that own Purge-a-Tron were clear- destroy, but only so much that the population of this planet doesn't get out of control. The only problem is, the Purge-a-Tron has only been given limited tools, and can only do so much for so long. Will you meet the expectation of this strange entity, or will you, as they say, "fail yet again"?
