Mercury Storm is a platform-shooter, you control the main sprite (Mercury) and shoot anything that moves. There are 5 levels, each with it's own boss.

It was participated in the PDRoms Coding Competition #3.

User guide

If you push against a wall while you are airborn, Mercury will cling on to the wall, enabling you to kick-jump off it.

By rapidly kick-jumping off walls over and over again you can climb up them. It is necessary to master this to be able to complete the levels.

There are 3 weapons available:

  • Spray shot - Fires a wide spray of shots Acquired from the [S] pickup.
  • Laser shot - Fires a straight line of laser shots in rapid succession. Acquired from the [L] pickup.
  • Homing missiles - Slow, but fires little rockets that chase after enemies. Acquired from the [H] pickup.

The game automatically saves whenever you complete a level.

The Continue option on the title screen lets you continue where you left off. Selecting Start New Game will erase the save.

Controls

A - Jump

B - Shoot

D-Pad - Move player, Aim

Up/Down - Aim up/down (you can do this airborn, and while clinging to walls).
