Hi I like to leave you the link of this Game, it´s something like in 16 Bits, Pixel Art... But the game it´s simply aswesome it´s a "tipically" shotém up... but very very better... I think it´s better than another greats Shot`ém ups, not because the Developer it´s Spaninsh... it´s a very good Job...

At the beggins seems the same of all games, but this it´s like a Spacial Adventure...
I think I put the link some time ago... but this weekend I wath the complete Game Play form my friend Frank friky Yt in youtube (only it´s in Spanish), and looking the game... only I think... this it´s a simple beautiful Art...
The game it´s totally free.
Looks great. :)
locomalito kicks some hard asses, check their G & G work in progress, marvelous.
Hydorah is a piece of love.
Already got really far into it, but it has way many secrets scattered around, a true classic.
I love retro 2D shmups, so this is right up my street. Looks great. :good:
Very much in the vein of the classic Salamander, which is no bad thing IMHO.

yep, wonderful stuff.
If you are more on the lines of ´time pilot´ kind of mechanics on your shotemups, also check this new release:

may come handy on your arsenal ;)
Locomalito its a monster of developing games... :good:
He uses Game Maker for his developments... I think its ideal platform for fast tests... but bad for "real" developments... :P
Anyways, congratulations to Locomalito for his greats jobs! BRAVO! :booze:

Game Maker is actually quite capable in the right hands. You don't really have to use the GUI all that much if you know how the scripting works - and with that you can do anything.
...but unfortunately most people using it aren't very ambitious (imho).
