How to Play:

  • Holding either mouse button will move the ship.
  • The left mouse button will also fire the zapper at flying enemies.
  • The right mouse button or 'space' will drop bombs at ground structures and vehicles (grey squares). A reticle in front of the ship shows where bombs will land.
  • Some enemies will shoot or try to hit you, 3 lives and you are out.
  • q to quit.
  • Full music and sound effects included if a speaker is attached.
  • (Many enemy types and areas are not currently included, get to end to win)

Fun game idea, but kinda hard to tell what's going on with the single characters. I think utilising more screen space (somehow) could've helped, and providing more contrast between the gameplay elements

I like how the bullets are little lines and how its designed. I have no idea how you pulled off the sound effects but they sound great! I do wish the gameplay was a bit more engaging and I wish the game scaled with monitor size.
