SHMUPI2024
A shoot 'em up game by Yehiel Certner
About
This small game was made while going over the Lazy Dev Academy tutorial for building SHMUPS in the fantasy console Pico-8!
i highly recommend any aspiring developers and game maker hobbyist to go to their you tube channel and try their tutorials!
Lazy Devs Academy
Controls
Use the Up-Down-Left-Right arrows on the keyboard or the joystick to control the ship,
Use the button 1 to shoot Use the button 2 to explode a bomb
(Note! your pickups will be erased)
Rules
It's an old school SHMUP, kill the aliens avoid the aliens bullets :)
pick up the pickups for extra life (5 picks) or for bombs, also there's a special pickup for extra firepower
Enjoy!
Super fun, good retro gameplay.
A few minor display bugs : Life counter goes offscreen when >10, message "press O to continue or X to Ex"... also goes offscreen. Y coordinate for point indicator when killing a "detatched" enemy often not showing where the enemy was killed.
High score should be displayed on title screen and game over screen. Seems it's only displayed when you beat it atm.
Thank you for the comments!! I've uploaded an updated cartridge with all the fixes :)) Really glad you liked the game!!
