Hey everyone!!! I'm really proud to announce my second game coded(the first one was Pro Foosball, which will be updated soon) and the first DevInside Team Project.
Please READ this whole post before posting!!!
First, what is T.O.W.? It's a shooter wherein you fly an F-15 to take down the enemies for avengence(see story).
Well, before any comments, let me explain something real quick. The idea of the game came up in a conversation between me and RichardV, which was to make a game not too complex in game play, but rather, something simple and classic looking sort of like Space Invaders, River Raid, or Galaga where all you do is just shoot the enemies down( i mean, no different weapons, or different things popping up on the screen like speed-up items, bonuses and stuff). So, the game is that!!! However, it does have a lot of different things though. Here's
what's in T.O.W. v0.1:
*Diagonal Scrolling (we though it'd be different homebrew wise)
*Story (interesting in our opinion)
*14 Levels (meaning 14 different backgrounds)
*1 Recovery Level (where you have a chance to go back to the game if all lives were lost)
*19 different types of enemies( maybe more coming)
*Highscore/
*Save/load/delete files (invented a new code for that, i think)
*Extra lives every 25000 points
*Extra special(bomb) every 15000 points
*Final grade from "F" to "A+++" (total of 15)
*Take a screenshot of highscore screen, gameplay(any level) and final results screen(total kills, final score, final grade and more)

-- and more...
I put a lot of work into this but there still mey be bugs i'm not aware of so i would appreciate it if you guys could try it out and report the bugs you find for it's only v0.1.
As of now i'm working on:
-Game Tutorial (not in this version yet)
-Different enemy movement (only changed a few levels)
-Bosses at the end of some levels
-A nice story ending when game is finished
-Bugs (if any found)
-More sounds and music, art and grafx, and eboot(add another image)
-New credits screen
-other improvements and more...
The game is not really hard, i finished it on my first attemp through the whole thing!!! It will get harder in the next versions. I would say the code was 100% original but i did use the bullet system (from Evilmana,not sure who actually wrote it) and the centeredText function( also from Evilmana and thanks to them). Other than that i created a lot of stuff like the save and load codes, extra lives, how to "dribble" the dofiles, bla bla bla...thanks in advance to everyone who will download it and to Dead Angel and RichardV (DevInside) who helped me get through this!!! :thumbup:
Here are some screenshots and videos!!!
P.S. there's a cheat somewhere in the game, see if you can figure it out (hey, no reading my codes,hehe) ![Wink](http://www.dcemu.co.uk/images/smilies/wink.png)
