The idea of Defender's Squad: The Last Ride

Defender's Squad: The Last Ride
A browser game made in HTML5

It's been a while I don't see a new game which makes me remember and revive the old ones, the classics. Thinking of it I decided that if I wanted a classic style shoot them up game (shmup), so I should do myself one.

We began from the story telling, then learned how to draw to make up the brand new assets. After that, we decided what game engine and design tool to use (actually, to learn). And finally, there were lots of hours and hours searching and reading about making a game, gameplay, game design, characters, power ups, etc, etc, etc.

From that day to now a lot of things happened, lot of steps were done but this is only the beginning.
