SHOOT is the best for a password,if you want access to a shmup :mrgreen:
T2KFreeker try this and tell what's happen :wink:
Cool! If I have only one thing I wish was different. I feel like the hit box on the players ship should've been slightly smaller, as I feel like there were times where I didn't feel like my ship touched the enemy & I died. But oh well, great job!

ah, i probably do not have enough optimized the ship hit box :-k But when i am testing, it seemed good, at least not too bad,but i probably should have done more beta tests.
I just play it again, and it is the explosion of two collisions ships that give the impression of large hit box,because the player box is the same when you pick up an item .
The idea was to make it challenging, and i think the goal is reached,and by far lol ..

For the short time frame it is pretty good. I never had a problem with the hit boxes, but it is more a bit frustrating that the bullets are skinny and slip past the enemies and your ship is pretty tall. This at times makes the ship feel a bit clunky, and really makes the game challenging when the screen fills with enemies. But it's nothing that renders the game unplayable. I felt like you need to play through it 5 or 6 times before you get the feel for how the game plays, then it was much better to put together longer runs.

Yes you're right, and time is really the guilty to have only one kind of player's shot,and it make the game more difficult .

Anybody want to capture some footage of this game, and maybe the bonus shooty, and put it up on YouTube? Some of us don't have the CD hardware, still, and would like to see what we could have once we do. (We being me!)

Don't mind me, I just prefer small hitboxes. I'm not the most awesome gamer, so I like things a lil easier then most old schooler's. :)

NICE!. Point driven Side scrolling shooter. That puts a smile on my face. Very cool, especially for such a short amount of time you guys took. Now I want the third game! :-"
You guys should program another game for the system. It would be very interesting to see what you can come up with with more time. Very nice.

ah sorry .. Next time,i promise you, i will include a special difficulty level for you . - No player collisions - and a player shot size of 200*200 pixels . :wink:
Sorry for hight difficulty level, but it was asked by RayXember because this bonus is ony a one level caravan, and it must be a challenge. And only 3 weeks to do it did not give me much leeway :?

Thanks,i have already started working on a SGX shoot, and it's already better by far,even being at the very beginning . I have rewriten some graphics libraries for SGX/PCE to improve the speed of sprites management .

If I understand correctly, you are pledging to release TWO new, unique and complete shoot-em-ups (one game themed around the American Civil War, the other game themed around Existential Marxist theory) as well as three separate "caravan" titles (to be determined) in 2014! Magnifique!
Thank you. You are very ambitious, but I applaud you wholeheartedly.
I eagerly await all five titles. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcds.html)

Yes and all with 1 or 2 bonuses games included(probably RPG), to use empty space ;-).
