Thank you for your feedbacks, Megalocrator and Taistelusopuli (how am I to pronounce that? ).

Controlling with the horizontal arrows seems like a good idea. I will surely consider it, Taistelusopuli. Using the vertical arrows for up and down just made sense to me when building the controls.

Megalocrator, the difficulty is indeed very low in the first stage. It's totally possible to clear it without moving once. I'm still thinking about how to make it more difficult. Indestructible obstacles may indeed do the trick.

I greatly appreciate your feedbacks, guys. Big thanks and stay tune!

Hi everybody!

Overdrive is a shmup with simplistic gameplay yet it gets difficult very quickly.

Hi everybody! I’ve uploaded a new version of Overdrive with better graphics overall and more balanced difficulty. Also, there are more levels coming soon!

Please take some time to play my game at https://www.scirra.com/arcade/shooting- ... drive-2125

Feedbacks are greatly appreciated!

Thank you, Borgi. I do my best to recreate that shmup feeling when I played Super R-Type on snes. I'm pleased you liked the game too.

Thank you for taking the time to play Overdrive and for the feedback, ryanrybot. I appreciate. And I 'm glad you enjoyed the game.

Finally, I feel ready to show it. Overdrive is the game I've been developing for the past year. I wanted to recreate what I felt the first time playing a space 'shoot them up' on the Super Nintendo years ago. PLAY IT FOR FREE at https://www.scirra.com/arcade/shooting- ... drive-2125

Please take some time to play it and give some feedback. If you do like the game a bit, sharing is caring.

Great thanks (^-^)/

Story:

Save the earth, save us all.

The evil extraterrestrial empire has arrived to earth with awesome power. Feel the heat of their armada as never before with the gorgeous graphics, the fast paced gameplay. Easy to play, difficult to master! The empire sworn to take over the earth by launching a great attack upon the Earth. Only you can stand between these monsters and doom.

Can they be defeated? Survive wave after wave of enemies with your lightning reflexes, collect the power orbs to shoot faster and do not forget to power up. The empire is ready for you. Good luck.

I'm glad you like the explosions, BigKid Icarus.

The ship does move slow, at first. It's possible to move and shoot faster when you successfully grab the speed powerUp during gameplay. I'll make sure to make all the powerUps more noticable for the player. I want to create very simple gameplay mechanics for my games and because of that, the player can only go 2 directions which I think could very be only Up and Down.

I see what you mean about the thing when the player is at the very bottom of the screen and basically survives the whole time. I'll see what I can do about this.

The music is coming very soon, Windwalker. I'm working as I'm writing this. As for the sound, I'' take your advice about the audio.play command. I was stuck on that issue.

It's actually possible to shoot where ever you want, in the direction the ship is going. I want my games to have very simple gameplay mechanics and because of that decision, the ship can only go 2 directions which I think are Up and Down.

Thank you for all suggestions and comments. They're greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your suggestions. I like the idea of a 'dash meter' and to recharge it by collecting something. Flying and jumping enemies are already on the way if not already in the game.

(*^0^)/ Hi.This is the second game I'm working on http://digitdraw18.wix.com/digitdraw#!shooter/ceiy . This one is side scroller shooter. Any feedback from you would be great. Great thanks.

(*^0^)/ Hi guys. I'm working on a couple of games right now and this one http://digitdraw18.wix.com/digitdraw#!runningman/cg4h is one of them. It's a running game. It would be of great help to me if you give a try and give some feedback. My website is also currently work in progress and may look differently time to time. I thank you.
