I just finished the tutorial series on how to make a 2D space shooter by busbyj.link. The tutorial was a remake of a tutorial someone else did but these guys did it in C#. Any ways so what am I posting. I am posting a webplayer to my finished project of the tutorial. I've added features to the game that wasn't in either tutorial. Such as shields, gaining more lives, and more asteroids flying at you as your score increases as well as some minor oprimizatons to the code. Let me know what you think. http://www.kongregate.com/games/slkjdfv/space-shooter
It is a good start, but the game is very basic. You need to improve the graphics, add new types of attacking spaceships, various weapons and bosses.
I'm working on power-ups right now actually. The shield was my stepping stone in that area as it was easy to implement. I plan on adding other things to attack later. I found some nice models on Turbo squid I can use. Thanks for the reply.
I added a weapon upgrade that lasts for 10 seconds. I even changed the ships model and made it tilt in the direction you're moving. More updates to come .
I clicked this guys web link and my computer got a virus, users beware!!! Some fake flash update install....
