WHY DO I PUT MYSELF THROUGH SO MUCH PAIN! I know why, 'cause when you look back at what you've created, you feel so very accomplished.
Anyway before I go on about the game, I highly suggest you download and play the WINDOWS version! The web/flash version is cut down and runs slower, so if you want the true awesome experience play the WINDOWS version!
So it's done, it's done! A mini-pocket Metroid styled game. What perfect thing for growth than a Metroid style game. A game where you grow bigger, stronger and more powerful.
There is a loose story line about a growth virus in there but sadly I didn't have enough time to flesh it out. I'd rather stick in a few bosses instead! :P
Controls:
Arrows = Move
Z = Shoot
X = Jump
Enter = Pause/Item/MenuScreen
-/+ = Change Volume
(Press Esc while on main screen to return to main screen.)
(You can change the controls by pressing 1,2 or 3 at the title screen. This will change the keys to A-S/Shoot-Jump or the WASD and KL)
So, it's done. It's a pretty large game considering it was made in under 72 hours, so have fun peeps! Now it's time for a nap and then to play all the lovely games other peeps have made! ^_^
