I’ve been playing this game for hours now, thankyou so much for bringing it to my attention.

That rocks, the audio is both grating at times and genious at others. I’m most impressed with the design though, its got just the right balance between waves of enemies, power-ups, and bosses. Much respect for its creator.

What’s the music from? I’ve heard it somewhere else…

Cool gameplay, beats a lot fo full color shmups out there.

Dan: Thanks for the kind comments. This is my first time making a shoot’em up so I wasn’t too sure if my level design skills were going to be up to scratch.

Data: The main music and sub-boss music is from Lifeforce/Salamander on the NES and the main boss music is from Starfox 64. I only had 3 weeks to do everything, so music was very much a last minute decision, but I had to put something in there, it just seemed so bare without it.

Since I’ve been getting a lot of positive feedback on it so far, I may well turn it into a full game :)

Too late — now I’m stuck in an infinite loop.

Nitro/BenH rules! (and so does his game!) :)
You should also try Nimyo’s game! It rules too!
