Message from the Management

When you finish a new game, demo, engine, or utility, the first thing to do is submit it to the archive for approval. (Log in first, then Upload a New Game from the sidebar.) Then feel free to post about it in this forum; in fact, please continue to do this. This is so people will actually know about your game and play it. As nice as it is to have archive uploads automated, it's not going to help much if no one knows you have a new game to play.

When uploading your games to the archive, please zip up your game using the .ZIP format, even if it is just a .MZX file. As for less popular formats (such as RAR and 7Z), games uploaded in these formats will be rejected. This is because as wonderful as those compression algorithms might be, ZIP is a near universal compression standard, and the only one that will work with the in-game archive browser planned for MZX.

You can also attach your game to a new thread in this forum. In this case, you can use whatever compression format you find suitable. NOTE: Games posted this way won't be put into the archive unless submitted to the archive proper, or unless the author states he/she wants the game in.

Lastly, we suggest you post a suitable screenshot of your submission (in PNG format) along with the game.

Well, asgromo here has more garbage for you ugly humans to set your eyes upon, and in your ignorance, be amazed by. Umm... It's a demo for a space shooter. Not yet named, it's code-named (because everything hyped deserves a code-name) PROJECT MOVEZIG!!!

Witty.

Um... basically, all the info is on the title screen... So, have fun. And give me comments.
And beat my unbeatable high score of 8062.

Your collision detection is godawful. I can't even count how many times I should've been dead. And, uh, beat your high score. I can play more (as you can see I still have five lives :o but umm.. I got bored.)

screen here.

I like the graphics, I like the simple yet somewhat addictive gameplay, and since this is just an engine demo I expect way more enemy types and a background that isn't an annoying eyesore.. This is good, keep going =) =)

Huh. Just from the screenshots, I like the graphics, but if you're making it a vertical scroller, you're gonna have to cut the screen width down. My advice is rotate everything 90 degrees and make it a horizontal scroller, like R-Type.

This week, on LANCER PONDERS:
<lolilover> I notice alot of Japanese fiction involving kemono-mimi characters always has the main character saving an innocent animal and then the animal returns as a girl to reward him for his kindness.
<lolilover> Well there's a cat that is always wandering around in my backyard. Should I feed it in the hopes that one day a catgirl will show up at my door?

One: I'm probably not going to cut the screen size. One of the major challenges of the game is dodging stuff, and that's much more difficult when everything is so much closer together.

Two: One of my original goals was to make a vertical sidescroller. Sorry.
