MinimalShmup Alpha Version 0.1:
Actual features in the game:
- Power Switch System:
You have 4 powers, with common gauges that fill by shooting on enemies.
- Bomb Power: You suppress every shot on the screen for a short amount of time
- Shield Power; You have a shield that protects your ships during 2.5 seconds, preventing you from dying.
- Special Power: Your ship shoot a lot of homing bullets that kills almost everything on the screen.
- Discover Power: There are treasures in the stages, that reward a good amount of points. Will you sacrifice some of your safety so make more points ?
- Gamepad/keyboard support:
The game is currently supporting xbox 360 gamepads / arcade sticks and also keyboard.
- Xbox: RT to shoot, X to power switch, Y to use your power, Start to pause the game.
- Keyboard: Space to shoot, X to power switch, C to use your power, ESC to pause, arrows to move.
What's still in development:
- Fixing bugs.
- More enemies.
- More patterns.
- Tweaking the scoring system.
- Local leaderboard.
- Musics.
- Better graphics!
For the moment, the level 2 is still empty but the boss is working ( even if nearly impossible to beat ). Also, there is no music, because I prefer to improve the gameplay first. The menus are a bit weird too.
So, that's why I need to get the more opinions/bug reports possible, to make it the best the fast I can. I don't want to release an unstable game or that feels odd or that isn't fun.
Don't hesistate to comment on the game! I'll respond as soon as possible.
Enjoy!
