Project-X-stream is a shoot 'em up game developed for Game Boy Color over a span of a few months.
It was released at Bung Enterprises 2nd Gameboy Coding Competition (2nd place).
User guide
Blast everything you see. Try to get through all 3 levels and kill the boss at the end of each level.
Collect the (S)peed-ups for a faster ship.
Collect the (p)ower-ups for better weapons.
Here are the powerups:
- Weapon one - The standard shooter.
- Weapon two - A double shooter that has a wider range.
- Weapon Three - The crest wave which can't be stopped by baddies.
- Weapon four - Double Crest Wave.
- Weapon five - Shield (Can be re-charged with every extra power-up).
Advice (you can never get enough):
- Keep fire pressed - It gives the best fire power.
- Keep moving.
- Don't fire when you don't have to (eg. in the asteroid storm).
- The first boss is very easy when you work out how the fireballs attack.
- In the Tunnels its best to keep getting the shield over and over.
- The boss on level 2 can only be destroyed by a powerful ship.
The game is quite hard, but you can complete it once you get used to the levels (practice makes perfect - Or savegame makes perfect).
