Quantizer

Quantizer started life a quick project developed more to give myself a sense of getting somewhere with my BlitzMax code, but it's turned into something that people are enjoying as well! The plot is your usual "blast off into space and do battle with slimy aliens", the ship comes armed to the hilt with a decent laser and three smart bombs and there are bullets. Lots of bullets in fact!

There's even an online highscore table, the top fifteen names from which are displayed on the Illogistix website (sort of like my personal "budget label" for want of a better description) and within the game. Yay!

Managed to get into the top ten for a change  Grin . I'd like to see bigger explosions myself but other than that not a bad little game.

They were bigger, but the play testers said to tone 'em down because the bullets were being concealed...!

Re: Quantizer

Bullets should be drawn clearly on top of everything... in my opinion. It looks like you've got additive blending on all your bullets. That's asking for trouble.
That being said, it is a cool little game. Some of the ships take a LONG time to die, but you've worked out some nice, simple but effective, bullet patterns.

Yeah, BlitzMax's LightBlend mode... there's something in me that doesn't like having bullets overlapping each other, i'm not sure why...!

On this one no because it's classed as "out the door", but the next project might well have... it's sort of under way already.
