This hits all the right notes with me! The inspirations are perfect and you made something really unique and enjoyable out of them! Great work!!
For a 10 day game this one is amazing! Real nice retro vibe to it. Nice controls, SFX and music. Also loved the fact that your bullet count on screen was limited like in real NES game! :) Awesome work!
I actually thought the game was harder with a controller.
Though... thinking about it I probably also should have posted the controls somewhere.
Rockets were Z, lol, though if you tried that you need to make sure you weren't out of rockets either.
Like I said, I probably should have posted the controls somewhere. I've updated the page since I made my first reply to you so hopefully future people don't run into the same problems.
And yeah I did all the testing with the twin linked lasers. I sorta wish I had given rockets more of a presence, y'know? As it stands they're a marginally better, slower firing, limited ammo option that only has some very specific uses.
Very impressive that you managed to pull it off in 10 days. I love the idea of the guys falling off the mechs and of course the Zelda 2 feels. I'll try to beat the whole game later :)
It was everything I imagined it to be and more.
