EDIT: I've just made my title screen so here it is:

Hi, I would like to post 3 screenshots of my space game ( I need to think up a title!!)

This game is going to feature 7 different ships, each with their own stats and special abilities.

Here are the screenies:

Select screen:

Defender using his shield special:

Pheonix recharging health:

Once I've done the single player mode, i'm going to make a multiplayer mode, but at the moment I'm not sure how I should make it…

The game is going along smoothly and I'll release the demo as soon as I get some missions done so you can play them.

There are 7 different ships and here are their stats and ablilities:

Pheonix

Shot: Very good

Speed: average

Shield: Very good

Special: Healing

Defender

Shot: average

Speed: poor

Shield: Max

Special: shield which protects you from damage

Blaster

Shot: average

Speed: average

Shield: poor

Special: Improved firepower and bouncy bullets

Interceptor

Shot: Very good

Speed: Very good

Shield: poor

Special: fires two shots instead of one

Warbug

Shot: average

Speed: poor

Shield: average

Special: fires an instant death shot

Laserswipe

Shot: average

Speed: Max

Shield: poor

Special: Improved speed

Nightwing

shot: average

speed: average

Shield: average

Special: turns invisible to enemies

are these ships balanced?

The specials are automatically initiated by picking up special powerups dropped by enemies, and they last for a few seconds

I would also like to point out that the asteriods are only temporary, (they are from Mark Overmars example which this is based on, so I'll be making my own asteroids soon)

Looks pretty nice. Is the resolution going to be that low though? One point. You should probably outline the ships with some colour. It might just make them look a *little* nicer :)

Thanks!!

The resolution is 320x240(menu)640x480(ingame) becuae it makes the graphics crisper, but there is also no black border around the screen. I've also put the black outline on the ships deliberately because I want then to look slightly cartoony like the background

Looks like a good game. Finish it.

I will, but I need mission ideas, I want 30 of them, but I want them to be varied.

so far I have these missions in mind:

Asteriod destroying mission

escort mission

transport mission

race mission

boss, (obviously)

I need another 5

( 30/10= 3 missions of each type)

I'll give credit

the pheonix doesn't sound too balanced

hmm… maybe you're right…

I'll reduce the speed to average.
