SOLAR RUSH

Single player arcade game...

Collect power cells on the grid to fuel your boosters and avoid the enemies firing from the sides.

Windows Keys: Arrows and Space (to boost)

I have yet to add the Attack Platforms which will also make the game more challenging

To Do:
- Attack platforms
- 30 Levels / Screens
- Music


***WINDOWS VERSION ATTACHED***

[UPDATED]
Comp:
Speccy-48k, Speccy-128k, Amigas, PCs

This looks (and plays) very much like Transversion on the Spectrum -

[EDIT] Sorry, the YouTube player her on GLB looks like it's broken - says it's an invalid link when put into the YouTube bb code, but it's not. So direct link only. :(

Your version is good :) The only issue I have with your version is that it desperately lacks pacing - the enemies just move and fire too slowly to feel any real pressure through the first few levels. Also as far as I got, I didn't actually use the fire button. Is it actually required?
I came. I saw. I played.

Thanks Ian

I have also to consider the target users will be using the on screen pad so that needs to be less difficult on the mobile device - keyboard is very handy for these types of games.

Anyhow - try this version and see if its a bit better!

quick shot...Ian, take the s of the https of your youtube link and it should work.

New game! Will check it out soon.

Cheers erico. So when exactly did YouTube start using https? I've posted vids before (even recently) without issue.

It happens with me for around 2 years I guess. I think it is because the youtube page auto logs on my google account and then the s  comes up .
