Great scrolling shooter game where you can customize your ship.

Featured:

- shop between stages;
- 5 ships;
- 5 weapons types with 5 levels each, (25 weapons total);
- secondary weapons, auxiliary shooters and special powers;
- shields, propulsion and much more to customize your ship;
- 4 stages;
- unique and varied enemies and bosses;
- fully soundtracked.

---------- AUTHOR NOTES ----------------------

I did this game to pay my homage to all scrolling shooters, specially Tyrian, Gradius, Xenon 2, Raiden and R-Type. They can be dead to the game industry but not in my heart :)

Sorry about the game size but I wanted to create a full-game feel. And for that, I felt the necessity to make it fully soundtracked. Each stage has its own music, and it isn't an countinuously annoying loop. The game can be hard and the player can have to repeat stages, so I believe it was important. Maybe in the future I will make a light version of that game. Let me know if you want it.

The game is heavily scripted, and because of that is a little heavy. Ive tried my best to make it lighter without taking out gameplay. If it gets really jumpy for you, read the "help" area in the game main menu.

Let me know what you think. Place all your feelings, bug report or ideas (of this or new games) in the review or my email. If you don't like the game, let me know why, and maybe my next game will please you.

Have Fun!!! I sure had making this game.

"COnstructive Critic..."

Good start, but it's to buggy and unfitted.

The controls aren't focus.
The enemys are to strong.

There are many fine details (like fightin' ships in "under-space" aso...) , but the main style and graphic aren't full used.

Have potential!!

Anyway, quite good vertical-shooter!

"decent"

Its pretty good, its not hard to grab my attention. The story line is decent, larger ships needs to thrusters on the back, and maybe on the first part, in the background, ships actually die? And maybe have them moving too? Over all it was pretty good, next time add lives, check points, etc. it'd also be great to see easier to read text.

"Horrible."

date: May 29, 2009

This game comes across like it was made by drunk monkeys. Text is way too small and barely readable. Mechanics are sluggish at best... pretty much waited the ship to catch up to the button I pressed. I did not give this game long. Overall it sux.. glad to read you had fun making it.. next time you have fun making a game.. keep it on your personal computer and dont have it pollute a website like this.
