Defendor is out!

Defendor
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

Finally finished my first game!

This was a big test for me, trying to finally going through a project from start to finish. It was supposed to be around a month of development, ended up being six months. A whole lot of procrastination, one new art  pack, several pack revamps, both legs operated upon, sickness, work issues, but I finally did it! My first game!

In case you did not realize from all that boasting up there, I am really proud of it!

It started as a small copy of bit blaster XL, which I love and recommend. Its an arcade shoot em up! Simple and fun ...

... Then it morphed into a sort of run like game, where you catch stars to improve your base to improve your future runs!

The premise is simple... you are a lonely ship against the onslaught of enemies. Your shots are numbered unless you pick up scrap droped by the enemies... which increase you ammo load.

Sometimes enenies drop stars.

You can use those stars to unlock items at your base, improve the way you can dish out damage to the enemies.

Try, catch stars, die, improve base, try again...

Until you finish the timer and allow everyone to escape the attacked base.

Anyway. I had A LOT of fun making this game. Hope you guys enjoy it!

I'm still missing a trailer for the game. I'l add it today. Then I will get back to my art assets!

Cheers!
