Take that Sinistar (Run Coward)! ... I annihilation your space fleet with a Death Blossom;
you bastard of a thing!

The HTML5 Audio is joke, right! So I've switched from Firefox to Chrome for development as its using the fairly awesome new Web Audio API. Down side is Web Storm doesn't capture Chrome's console.log messages...

No coding for a week, off on holiday...

A demo : http://users9.nofeehost.com/huhugrub

Still quite a lot of work do to, only up to 18 levels, menu and high score table to do ...
a least I've given it a name. Is this game too easy, too hard; its hard to know, I've been playing it to often!

Recommended:
Chrome Ver 23 (lastest version)
Xbox 360 joystick (uses latest HTML5 gamepad API)
Requires and i5 or i7 processor.

Limitations :
Internet Explorer, Nope .... don't even go there!
Firefox, may crash on the main menu (guess some internal heap issue), and gameplay slow down, html5 audio is a little rubbish.

Keys:
left, right, up, down.
shoot : z, a, q
shield : x, s, w

Very nice

Hmm? Dunno seem to work when I tried it just now. You may need to wait ~30 seconds, the web server/service isn't the quickest.

Still plugging away at it, added more enemies for level 21 - 30, and a bully bonus as a homage to Llamasoft.

Still not working. I get a "connection was reset" error. It wasn't working when you originally posted that link either.

Still at the loss to the reason why? I've re-tested it with IE, FireFox, and Chrome... all download fine... Out of interest, what browser are you using and what version.

Might be a firewall thing. Avast just pitched a fit and blocked it, claiming a URL:Mal infection.

Managed to get it working after turning off the Web Shield in Avast. Crashed in Firefox (latest version) but ran OK in Chrome. Looking good so far.

I've been converting some Java, LWJGL and Puppy Games' frameworks to C#.

Here's the result of the latest tinkering...





and little YouTube of it in action...

Nice one. Been wanting those on the 360 for a while now.

It works a treat in Chrome on my Ubuntu 12.04 laptop with a mobile i5 and PS3 controller.
I suck at bullet-pattern games though and there didn't seem to be much pattern to all those bullets. I resized the game to take up more screen space with 'ctrl'+'+' but still had trouble seeing them in all the action. I think the colour-cycling grid may contribute to that with certain colour shifts, or might have coped better with tracking less of them at a faster speed. I suppose it gave me plenty of opportunity to appreciate the effort you put in the spectacular player death effects!
All in all, a solid little shooter that I find technically impressive and ambitious being HTML5.

Thanks for info about Chrome/Linux. I agree the bullets are hard to see that version, I've since updated them to blink yellow to help to see them.

Made some good progress on the Titan Attacks conversion. Here's the latest video.



This is running on Windows at the moment - I've a couple of system left to implement then I can begin the XBox 'port' (mainly fixing garbage issues at a guess)

I'd hestitate calling this programming but I've been fiddling a bit and have come up with this.

What the hell do I do now?
