Nice game! Got definite Robotron feels with 80s style sounds, and of course Smash TV with the top-priority kill red 'Mr Shrapnels' and just a smidge of Jeff Minter style psychedelia with all those colours!
Score: 68750 - holy crap the boss is hard to hit at the end, I only just scraped through :) Nice one.
Congrats! I've always wanted to make a dual stick shooter, had an idea bouncing around for a long time to make a Gauntlet-esque one.
Since I added gamepad controls to my submission here, I sortof have a dual-stick shooter game, though mine is certainly more sedate than yours or Smash TV's baseball bat infused carnage.
Nice, I havent tried yours yet but will tonight or sunday. Twin sticks are so much fun I wish I could have left the gamepad twin stick setup in but with the mouse one they clashed and i didnt have time to make menu options to select which one. Man I loved Gauntlet so much. Cant wait to try yours now.
Yeah, when I added pad controls it took a lot longer than I expected due to clashes - mostly with the torchlight that follows the mouse pointer... I don't want to oversell my game too much - it's fairly relaxed, and compared to Gauntlet there's just a fraction of the enemies onscreen to mow down... and there's no food to shoot :)
