EVO-001 is an old-school space shooter made in Game Maker. Unfortunately, the game ended up having little to do with the theme 'evolution'.

My original idea was for a game where the enemies register player behavior and alter their actions accordingly, based on player weapon usage and location preference on the screen. As time began to run out, I had to make the decision between failing the Dare yet again or cutting these 'evolutionary' gameplay aspects completely from the game.

I chose the latter. Hopefully I'm not disqualified!

Default keyboard: Z/X - Fire. C - Change weapon. Arrows - Move.

360 Gamepad: X/A - Fire. Y/B - Change Weapon. LStick - Move.

The gamepad doesn't work in the title menu, but it does work in-game! If you have a 360 gamepad I suggest you use it!
