Play as an infinitely sub-dividing spaceship in this shmup with an experimental control scheme! Divide and grow yourself, and hopefully one of your offspring will survive the hell... Bullet hell.
//=========================================
This game covers Two-Button Control, with a tiny amount of Growing and a touch of Generations. Sure, you can use Left + Right for the two buttons on a shmup, but come on.
//=========================================
Controls:
1. Press X to split yourself into 4 mini-you
2. Use C to select a mini-you
3. Press X again to transfer your hitbox to the mini-you, and launch the others as projectiles.
As with these games, your hitbox is the small 5px dot.
//=========================================
Code: Visual Studio 2012 + Monogame 3.3
Graphics: Paint.NET
Font: 8 Bit Wonder (http://www.dafont.com/8bit-wonder.font)
