Xenograft demo
In the not too distant future of 4xx8, aliens have invaded earth and then all the...
erm...
...hmm..
Nah, I just made another jumpy-shooty-thing.
This is a test for an engine I wrote that is sort of similar to "LOVE2D", but more catered to my needs and intended to work on Linux, Windows and Android machines. (I don't have a Mac to develop on).
This demo only consists of one level, but I do hope you enjoy.
The game is very much a contra-clone with a SMASH-TV styled 2 axis shooting system.
I would highly advise setting up a control pad for desktops and on any Android TV system (in fact I dunno how else you would play on an Android TV system).
If you notice any big glitches or errors, please do leave a message and inform me of the system you are running the demo on and a description of the glitch.
My apologies for not having a good scaling system for displays in this demo, it will literally just distort the games native resolution to your screen... sorry wide-screen users... I will be correcting this soon for the engine to allow some nicer scaling options.
Also; please do tell me if you enjoyed the demo and would be interested in a full game. I'd probably sell it for $1, but it would contain more levels, a 2 player mode (for two gamepads... I've never done network code before, and I like the old school setup), an actual story (something fun and silly), more disturbing designs, big bosses and set pieces like the old arcade run and guns. I will also listen to your suggestions.
Thanks for checking this out.
