Thanks for the comments, guys. Glad to see that people think it looks good so far. I'll probably post some larger screenshots later, so keep your eyes out for those.
I think it looks awesome!! I had an idea similar to this the other day, but you've beaten me to it and i don't care coz i don't think i could have done it much better myself! I am wetting myself in anticipation for this game!!!!!
Awesome!
This is probably the first 2D platform shooter I've ever seen!
Hey guys, if you need a spritist or someone to create anything about art:
-Logos
-Cut-scenes
-Sprites
and all sort of other things, then just send me an email or PM me!
Thanks, Andrew. Although mine is far from the first 2D platform shooter like this. I'd like to point you in the direction of Friendly Strike 3 in the downloads section. It's a really good game and you should try it.
Don't aim for perfection- you'll miss the deadline

well why does the custom controls for the keyboard palyer even affect the menu controls at all whats thep oint jsutm ake it so for the keyboard palyer on the menu screens everything is always up down left right enter regardless of the controls they set'
awesome, but you should make it look like an apache!!!, those things are wicked
btw the sound you use for the rifles is familiar, is it from RA2?
and if u have RA2 theres like a billion sounds you could rip
red alert 2, i have all the command and conquer games, and this one has about 1000-2000 weapon sounds and they're high quality, i can get just about any weapon sound from it.
ya i forgot about halo, havnt played in a while, theres a gun turret in ra2 that sounds like the battle rifle, so i thought of that first, really nice game btw. im looking foward to this and the orphanage
I listened to some of those samples but they're not named very obviously, so I really didn't know what I was looking for. Are there any good gun or explosion sounds?
yea, just quickly click through em, they make sense after you listen to enough
lo means loop
when it has an a b or c after a common name those are the same weapon/thing wich are slightly different to make a loop or sample sound more random
theres quite a few good sounds, some arent weapons tho, their for vehicles/helis/planes and other stuff but their all good.
i didnt bother renaming them cause i have a ton where those came from, but i suggest you give em all a listen
