Projects section is for any platform, so this is all good :). I remember seeing some early gfx for this game and they looked great. This looks even better!

You can tell its gamemaker, but eh, its pretty awesome :).

Wow, looks cool (I won't get a chance to play it until tonight). :(

If it's written in Game Maker, does that really matter?

What is Game Maker? An RPG Maker type program, only not for RPGs? Either way, it looks really nice!

I suck horribly at this game. ;)

I love the art and music style in use here. Even if it is rather... splattery. :D

Not sure if you're on the hunt for bugs, but pressing A at the title screen pops up an error message.

I know about the error and I will get it fixed (possibly by just having it catch and then ingore it since it doesn't actualy mess anything up) And there are a wide variety of mechanical enemies trying to kill you.

Game maker is a porgram that can actualy make all kinds of stuff, and it features both a drag and drop system (which was how the forst version was made) and a more powerful/complex actual laungage (which the game is mostly now)

um...so has anyone actual beaten the game? I haven't heard a single person say they have and if so, besides the fact that apperently a lot of people aren't the best at old school style shooters, I need to make an easy mode or something...

If anyone can, I'll give it to the first winner.

hmm, let's see. The next Friday, october 23 is in 2009. So, I get the feeling that someone will have beaten it by then. :mrgreen:


You know, I've tried quite a few times to download that file, but each time I click on the final free download link, it gives me a blank page, and doesn't download anything. I've tried both firefox and IE, but neither works. I would have been playing this for some time now if the download worked. Would it be possible for you to host it somewhere else?

This looks amazing, but this host is very poor. Please link us to a good host, I can't download this to save my life..
