Thats the update video explaining the game. It is a space invaders clone with crappy graphics and music. I coded it in blitzbasic.

You can download it here. IT IS RECOMMENDED TO BUILD THE GAME FROM THE SOURCE. I didn't make the most updated EXE, so if you want the latest(internal) features, compile it from source.

Please comment/reply with advice, ideas, or constructive criticisms.

PROGRAMS USED:
Programming - BlitzBasic
Music - SFXR
Art - GIMP
Archiving - Tugzip(like 7zip, but with a GUI)

Just curious, but why not build the most updated exe?

[JaxDragon]

I thought it was, until I had already uploaded it. If you think its a big deal, I'll update it. I've just been lazy :P.

Sorry for not responding yet--busy with AP Chem homework. I'll play it either later today or tomorrow and let ya know what I think!

Good luck on the game and keep up the nice work. I'm looking forward to playing it.

[JaxDragon]

Thanks, it means a lot to me that official developers/artists are interested in other peoples work. Most of the time people call me a n00b and delete me off their forum...

5 starred and favorited. Looking very nice. Reminds me so much of Marcel's first Blitz creation... Ah, my little Marcel is all grown up now...

[dandymcgee]

Lol, that game is actually fun .

I need to get myself a little Marcel.. programming alone is fine and all but it'd be much more fun with a partner .

that is pretty nice right there I havn't made any space shooters, well nevermind i started a basic one that never got finished but after that my standards for a good space shooter were pretty low... still that is a really nice game the only thing i would do is make it so you can't shoot so many bullets at once other than that it''s perfect...

And i love your profile picture

[JaxDragon]

Really? You don't like the bullets? I liked them because they made it unique. If you think its a bad idea, i'll try and put a limit on them.

[eatcomics]

Hey dude it's your game. That is just my personal perspective, don't change every little thing because one person didn't agree. That is just dumb...

[eatcomics]

I challenge you all to a goho aliens challenge my current score is 10080 are there any warriors brave enough to oppose me?

[JaxDragon]

Mines 30234... pwn3d

[eatcomics]

Damn you...

Pretty sweet jax, keep up the good work. I wish I could look at the code, but unfortunately I
don't have the time to learn BlitzBasic, as I'm learning Lua in my free time right now.

The score disappears when you die o.O It was somewhere around 4000 lol. I couldn't stand the sound affect for much longer than that anyhow. Still fun
