A game where you control 3 different ships and switch control between them every 10 seconds. Increasingly difficult enemy waves attack and your goal is to survive as long as possible.
Made with XNA and I am planning a Monogame port to Mac and Linux shortly. Also will try to get a Web version with JSIL up soon.
Couldn't run due to my (lack of) graphics card on my crappy laptop

Thanks all!
@Rialgar - Yeah, the upgrades were added in the last 2 hours of the compo and I was a little rushed. I also made it to where they only effect your current ship (for the damage and fire rate), but perhaps it should have effected all 3. Glad you liked it and I'm sure someone will beat your score :)
@Skully I think I may have targeted the wrong XNA profile. I'll check and see.
I really enjoyed this! I had to play it a few times until I beat the high score (mine was 159). I was impressed that some nuances emerged as I played the game more (like how ship 1 seems more effective if I don't use auto-fire, and how ship 2 is the "safest" ship) Nice work!
Got to a score of 91, I got greedy on a power up. Had I not done that, I would have been fine. Liked the game, and the three ships work well. Though, with the straight firing one, I spent a lot of time hiding at the top waiting for the area effects of the other ships.
It would be nice if the upgrades where distinguishable.
