Sky Knight is Shoot ‘em up vertically scrolling top-down retro shooter game. You're tasked with the very grave mission of defending the earth from a heinous evil alien race set on enslaving your peoples.

At your disposal are 7 powerful weapons. Due to the time critical nature of this conflict, the only way you have access to these weapons is when they randomly drop out of the sky following the destruction of an enemy unit is destroyed.

Select the best weapon that suits ur current circumstances... it could mean the difference between success or total annihilation...

Can you survive these evil aliens and ultimately face the final boss to win this game? Well can ya?

Vertical shooting flash. The graphics were polished and colorful. The gameplay suffers from many issues You cannot move diagonally while firing. The full screen option does not work correctly.

Fwg at it again

And yes fwg at it making fun yet simple games once again. The graphics we're pretty sweet in this one. The music was notbad either and I would have to say this was rather fun and I enjoyed it very much I like the gameplay I would ad some mini or bonus level like a secert room or something

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
A bonus or mini game as mentioned

~X~

This game isn't too bad actually.
The only things I disliked were the restrictions of movement and the immediate difficulty against enemy ships.

As with many others, same problem; can't move diagonally while firing. Have to go into the menu to change to auto-fire. Might as well have auto-fire as default setting rather than other way around.
Fullscreen option is a joke. You're supposed to increase dimensions to fill the screen, not just have the same tiny screen in the middle of a blacked out background.
I do like that you give a review of the powerups, but maybe a color system rather than alphanumeric?
Even after changing to autofire, i found this unplayable on such a tiny screen (for PC at least)

Portuguese:
Eu gostei de quase tudo no jogo, exceto porque os criadores colocaram o tiro na barra de espaço, o que torna a jogatina impossível, por causa do famoso "BUG DAS 3 TECLAS".
Ainda bem que pelo menos colocaram a opção de tiro automático e suporte a joystick (no joystick o bug das 3 teclas não ocorre).

English:
I liked almost everything in the game, except that the creators put the shot in the spacebar, which makes the game impossible, because of the famous "BUG OF 3 KEYS".
Thankfully they at least put the option of automatic shooting and joystick support (in the joystick the bug of the 3 keys does not occur).
