This was my first Ludum Dare entry and im quite happy with how it turned out. I used:
-Aseprite for the pixel art
-sfxr for the shooting sound
-BeepBox for the music track (https://www.beepbox.co/)
-Visual Studio Community 2015 for everything code related
-notepad for the readme (yes im going to note that here.)
currently the only supported platform is win_x64, having trouble compiling for x86 :( (still working on it.)
controls are:
WASD and arrow keys for movement,
mouse for aiming and space for shooting,
menu navigation with arrows and enter :)
The project turned out way better than i expected, and even though its lacking a bit in content, it does have some charming low resolution pixel art graphics, a color shader to swap colors on the fly, and a killer soundtrack, which was my first experience in making music, ever, which also turned out nicely.
One issue i have is that norton says the exe file is "potentially harmful" which is probably because i didnt sign the file with any credible author signature, but hey. at least it works finally. if you dont trust my exe, you can also just compile the included source code, and replace the exe, that way you "know whats inside".
small edit: thanks to user @artish257 `s feedback, i edited a small bit of code to enable LMB for shooting, aswell as still having the Space key. minor adjustment, should help the controls quite a bunch though.
