GBA shmup

Entry to PD Rom's Coding Comp. #3.99 (entrants were limited to 4 colors on screen at any time). Download and game description below.

Use the D-Pad to steer your jet to avoid the flashy bullet thingies.

Press B to fire at enemies. Collect Powerups (the "P" things that fly around)
to strengthen your firepower.

Press A to launch a big missile that blows up lots of stuff. It also makes you
invulnerable for a short period. You will start with 2 of these with each life.
The "B" pickups will supply you with an extra missile.

If you touch a bullet then you will explode and lose a life! If you have no
more extra lives, (shown in top-left/right corner) the game will end. You may
continue from the beginning of the level (but you lose your score).

Finally, an entry that looks like it could actually win a compo.

Nice - some good ol' GBA homebrew.

Wish folks would make more GBA homebrew than the shitty DS games Urza is always posting.

why only 4 colours ?

why only 4 colours ?

It's a limitation to make the competition a little bit more interesting.

I had some serious doubts about that rule, but after seeing this one, all doubts removed.
