Spaaaaaaaaaaaaace (shooters)
Since our assignment Mayes gave us for this week was to play Space Shooters I decided to look up some retro shooters. I have been playing a whole bunch of games like Asteroids, Captain Skyhawk, Dragon Spirit and Captain Planet and the Planeteers. I must say that I really liked the 2.5D isometric graphic style of Captain Skyhawk. Captain Planet and the Planeteers had a nice mechanic which let you turn around and fly back a short distance for taking out enemies you have missed.
This have given me a few ideas for new games and has also given me some ideas of how to draw good-looking sprites. Now I’m curious to see what words me and my new group will get, and what new ideas these words will give birth to.
