Resonate PSP homebrew game version 0.57

Here is a youtube vid of the action:



Resonate is a fast paced undersea rail shooter. Your goal is to evolve into a thresher shark and become king of the ocean. On normal difficulty the player starts as a Sea Urchin (level 2). Hit the blue striped targets to collect evolution up. Collect eight and move up a level to Sea Horse (level 3). Miss a target that collides with you and move down to Zooplankton (level 1). If you're hit too many times, the adventure ends and you need to try again.

Features

- five hero forms: Zooplankton, Sea Urchin, Seahorse, Stingray, Thresher Shark
- high score tracking for each game
- boss fight at the end of the main level
- online high score sharing
- enemies in various attack formations
- three kinds of power ups
- level editor for Windows, Linux or MacOS based on fltk and OpenGL

I submitted version 0.55 of Resonate to the compo last night, but I found a couple of minor issues with the boss fight. Download via comments. So here is the post compo release version.

Here is the change log from 0.45:
version 0.57
- fixed boss damage visualization

version 0.55
- new compo title screen with water drop special effect
- new main level which is easier for Meyitzo but still interesting
- now fight against the tall ship of doom to free the sea (boss fight)
- moved old main level to version0_45
- Intel Mac level editor now available
- added model preview in the level editor
- increased the number of supported enemies to 512
- increased the memory used by the CFW build to 20MB for bigger sounds, etc.
