So the theme was Ancient Technology, so I went with Steampunk-ish setting. I planned to have more stuff in, but alas time is short and I wanted to make a polished game instead of cramming loads of stuff in. It's basically the first stage from a long lost Mega Drive game.
My tribute to Treasure's lovely run-n-guns.
I highly recommend playing the windows version as the game isn't well optimized for flash as it was intended to run on a window exe format.
CONTROLS!: READ THIS!
(You can edit the controls in the options menu to some alternatives)
Arrows: Move
Shift: Jump
Control: Shoot
\: Change Weapon
Space: Dash (you can also dash by pressing down and fire) (Dashing makes you invincible Dash through enemies, bosses and bullets!)
Press F2 will hard reset the game :)
You can change the controls to different types in the options menu.
Just to note, as this is a more relax jam, I did cheekily take the sound effects from Dynamite Headdy and Gunstar Heroes for the extra authentic feel :D
Hope you enjoy!
