This is a vertical shoot 'em up project I've been working on since 2008. It's done in Multimedia Fusion 2.

Great sound effects. I think the little helper ships are an awesome idea. I love making top-down shooters because they're really easy! But it looks like you've put a lot of effort into the details of this so far. Your sprites look great, but you probably want to get your own. Hopefully you can do that and still maintain your current level of quality. What is multimedia fusion, by the way?

here are some working in progress enemies


I've done a lot of recoding and tweaking, but none of this will show much of a difference in the video. Feel free to suggest any new features or weapons, I kind of ran out of ideas as of now. (please include on "How the feature can be done logically in terms of condition=>action," as my math is limited to algebra and trig.)

You again?

So far, 'dem ships are looking pretty fine.
