DualShooter is the first public release of eadmaster's homebrew NDS game. It is a vertical shot'em up developed entirely in C with PAlib.

DualShooter 0.8 was submitted to the NEO Spring Coding Compo 2008.

Features

  • 3 levels with large scrolling backgrounds captured from the Earth.
  • Built in soft-reset/poweroff functions.
  • 3 enemies.
  • 4 shoot-types (single/double/missiles/double missiles) and bombs.
  • Musics, sounds, explosions and all the stuff you would expect from a nice shoot'em up game.
  • Everything runs smoothly @60 FPS (tested on a real NDSL with R4DS).

User guide

Control the hero ship in the lower screen and destroy all the enemies incoming from the upper screen.

If you lose all your lives, then the game is over.
