Gameplay video !

youtube.com/watch

I'm now working on adding invaders, trying to create synergies between them (something a little deeper than shield + range attack), and balancing !

Is BBcode broken ?

"S" doesn't skip, and it's terrible to have to click with the mouse between each level ! Also, is it normal that I can't grab every coins, especially in early stages ?

I'm mainly talking about good controls, HUD, learning curve, etc, but yeah, a gameplay based on concepts should be promising to :p I'll think about it !

Not really, I'm interested in art in general (for exemple, I play harmonica and guitar), and to create video games is the best way to touch at everything, and to include my knowledges in psychology. I think I juste love to learn stuffs !

Nevertheless, I may be interested in an ergonomy school, that may conduct to a game designer job, but it's a bit optimistic :p

Yeah I intend to use sfxr, and maybe not only in a first time, cause I don't now if I'll try to get professional sounds :p

Hi !

I'm Geoffrey, a french psychology student !

I'm trying to make game since a few months ago, when I discovered Construct, trying to learn things in different domains (design, ergonomy, music, art ...) while improving my english and, maybe, contribute to the indie video game community with my works

Hi there !

Shooter vs Spawner, my first game, is an asymetric 2 players vertical shoot'em up. One player have a regular ship (moving with keyboard), while the other have to send him enemies (with the mouse), including bosses, with a limited amount of "money".

The shooter can choose between different ships (two, for now ; each one have different upgrades), the spawner between different classes, privileging different tactics (a lot of little enemies, or on the contrary a few big ones, or powers to bother the other player, etc).

Ships :

Look a lot better in movement, a video is coming !

Abstract graphisms are mainly due to my lack of art skills, nevertheless I'm trying to make them pretty !

To-do list :

Some graphics to do, some graphics to improve

Bosses (~3 by type of spwaner)

Some spawner's powers

Some sounds, a music

Balances

More content, more content !

More modes. I'm thinking of one where a player have to defend something

An online mode, if the game have some success :p
