Elysian Shadows

Gameplay Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piNtHWCfLas

I recently finished my summer project, a space shoot'em up. This was made for SDLTutorial.com's contest in which we had to make a game similar to R-Type and Galaga. This is my first full game made in C++/SDL aside form the usual Pong and Breakout clones. I'll release the binaries soon and the source once the contest winner has been decided. If you like it, hopefully you'll vote for me when the polling begins!

Noteworthy features:
- Multiplayer
- About 5 minutes of gameplay
- 4 unique enemies with a boss and minibosses
- 4 different weapon types with powerups
- Programmer artwork drawn up in a day
- Amazing music made by a friend of mine

If you're someone who regularly posts videos of your programming stuff on YouTube, please subscribe and/or friend me and I'll do the same. I need to start getting in the habit of showing off my stuff.

Extremely well done. My favorite part is the final boss . I don't know whether to laugh or be scared.

Also, 5-starred and subscribed.

Very nicely done, looking forward to learning from the source.

Great one more baby head that will forever haunt my nightmares.

Very nice work Bakkon love the graphics.

That's awesome, I love the powerups and the final boss

How long until we can play?

I'm waiting until the guy running the contest releases all the projects that were submitted, but if that takes too long, maybe a couple days from now.

5*, Favorited, Subscribed. Loved the kid at the end shooting sin/cos-d to hell bullets at us. The little guy must be good at trig!

Very very nice! 5 stars. The boss is really wierd though Reminds me of Andross from Starfox.

Very much like Andross

Man, that is awesome! Great work.

Incredible work I don't learn trigonometry until the last marking period of this school year though, so I'm not going to be able to make any sine/cosine wave bullet patterns until then

Definetly enjoyed your game the most, got my vote, although I couldn't get all of the other games to run sadly.

It was really difficult tbh, but I finally beat it [P] FTW!

Edit: How did you do collision? It was nicely done from what I saw.
