Micro Shooter

Feint Micro Arcade: SHOOTER

A tiny 1-bit pixel art space shooter, built in 1 week

Description

Fly your ship and take on a wave of enemies and environmental hazards to try to get a high score!

Please note that scores are not saved, but feel free to comment with high scores or send screenshots to me on twitter I'd love to see them 😊.

Controls

• Arrows to Move
• X to Move
• [Left/Right]+Z to Shield Bash
• Enter to Select menu option

How to Play

• Drift left-and-right using the arrow keys and press X to fire forwards at enemy ships
• Holding left/right and pressing Z will Shield Bash horizontally in the direction you choose,
  • Makes you briefly invincible to enemy gunfire
  • Will destroy ships and asteroids in your path
  • HP partially regenerates with each bashed enemy and asteroid
  • Shield Bashes cost 1 SP to use so use sparingly!
• Watch out for asteroids, they cannot be shot down, although you can shield bash them
• Look out for health drops (white pulsing diamond) and shield drops (cyan pulsing circle) to refresh HP and SP respectively.

Feint Micro Arcade

Micro Shooter was built in a week to test my WIP game engine, Feint. The game and engine are written in Haxe and runs on HTML5 Canvas. I'll be releasing other tiny micro games periodically as I build Feint, so drop a follow here on Itch or Twitter if you would like to play more!
