Enough Weapons of Mass Destruction have been found on the Earth to destroy dozens of planets! Obliterate the tyrannical human empire before they destroy the peace and freedom of the whole galaxy! It's been forever since I made a game so I was trying lots of new graphics and coding stuff with this one, and I made each level play differently.
Tips:
*Press "controls" in-game for gameplay instructions.
*Homing rockets move faster than they accelerate - change directions quickly to avoid them, or to get them to slam into the ground (Which can kill enemies, too)
*Rockets can be shot down but it's often not easy.
*Rockets detonate harmlessly when they run out of fuel, which take 4 seconds.
*Use the tilt of your ship to your advantage when firing lasers.
*Watch that laser cannon charge!
*You don't have to kill everything in the level to win - just survive to the end! (Except mission 2 where the mothership must also survive)
Production Notes:
My computers hard drive recently killed itself, taking with it several projects I was working on. I then found an old CD over a year old containing a very old game I had started but never completed because I didn't even understood how to make Flash games. I now know crap-loads more about Flash and programming, so I decided to actually create the game with new graphics and coding - a lot of the stuff in this game I have only JUST learned, or learned WHILE I was making it.
Wow! This is nostalgia at its finest! I played this over 10 years ago! That being said, the game was good but the controls are terrible.
Flyborg responds:
You are correct about the controls being terrible! This game is an example of a problem with game devs being experts at playing their own games.
Nice, nice game ~ the only let-down is the ship steering =/
At first, I thought this wouldn't be any fun because it seemed too repetitive. It really did turn out to be a lot better than I thought it would be. It's mostly because things escalate so well. I don't know how farmers have access to missile launchers, but it's cool! You really have to go at a certain angle to kill them all. The music was good too.
What really made this was how good the graphics were. While the designs themselves weren't that great, it really did flow well. I had no idea farmers could be such a threat. Well, aliens can be dumb, I imagine. I don't know how to avoid the missiles.
Stars: 10

Fun: 10
Excellent Job! The Game Is Awesome!
