Barring gamebreaking bugs, this is mhy last update for SIDS. I'll work on a new DS homebrew though so staty tuned. ;*)


As requested, a New Ship and it plays a lot different than the other 2.
Auto-bombs only work on bullet and not enemy collisions.

BTW, try to load the "Loco Viper" replay to see an efficient use of the way the 3rd ship works.

Enjoy!

The game looks great! Looks like it would be a lot of fun!

 

[relminator]

Thanks the version if already 0.8.4; *)


BTW, to get "Replay" to work. Finish the level without a continue.

 

[smealum]

So I guess we'll be competing again... good luck to you !

 

[WiiUBricker]

This is great. Good luck to you

Hahahaha. Nah, considering the depth of the compo, I'll be really surprised if I do get a prize. I like entering these type of contests though since it forces me to finish my projects.

Good luck to your entry too.

WiiBricker: Thanks.

This is great, first we get a bullet-hell game and now we get a shmup, I'll try it out tomorrow.

The original seems to have been uploaded before categories came into place in that section so we wouldn't add this as a new version (as it'd request a category first), the existing files should be merged into a single entry when a filetrip mod gets to it.

Gotta' say I like the look of that source, from a glance it looks like it was meant to be re-used.

 

[AlanJohn]

I honestly love the name...
Space-Impakto!!

 

[chyyran]

Yeah, another SHUMP.

We got our SHUMPs on the DS now, but how about an RTS

 

[nasenhund]

This game is awesome!

Hope you get one of the top places in this bounty.
Good Luck!

EDIT: I think it's hard but I think thats the way it should be.
Level 2 is ok in my opinion.

 

[XXLANCEXX]

If you manage to make a SHMUP sequel to Ikaruga I will praise you

but this is epic thanks

;*) It's a spoof of an old Nokia game when cellphone games are still in black and white. Impakto means devil in my language. BTW, I gotta get those nice triangular shades you and some other tempers are sporting these days.

ron975: I believe there's an RTS posted on the NDS emulation segment a while back looking for testers.

nasenhund: Thanks.

XXLANCEXX: I'm a fan of Ikaruga myself. In fact, I've implemented the Ikaruga ex-lasers on one of the builds of this game but it borked the gameplay. ;*(. And being someone who hasn't played an actual ikaruga game(I only saw ikaruga through videos), I'd probably mess the sequel up.


Guys any bugs to report? Suggesions for bosses and bullet patterns, etc?

Thanks for the comments all. I'm amking some external tools to manange the enemy sequencing better.

 

[Evo.lve]

Since you like Kamina glasses so much, add them to your game?

 

[relminator]

Since you like Kamina glasses so much, add them to your game?

Sure. Give me a 16 color or 256 color boss sprite sporting those glasses and I'll do the rest. ;*)

Statement withdrawn.

Mea culpa.

(I really really suck at making art)

 

[relminator]

Well, you could ask someone you know to make the sprite. I'm serious, I'll make it a boss. Probably the final boss.

That way, the game has a "gba temper" feel to it. ;*)

64x64 transparent 16-color GIF of monkat's avatar?

Though I guess his older monkey one would work better if anybody had it.

 

[relminator]

Rydian: I don't know how I could make that into a boss since a boss in this game should face left sideways. Hmn, maybe I'll make this guy a pilot or something. ;*)
