And, hello! You are in a tier! In a virtual tier! Relax! Press buttons and aim to target – it is fun! And serious! Game is made in Q Basic 64, with resolution 320 x 200 pixels screen. Game is a tier. You operate with arrows and press space for shooting. You are making a shot, and than reload time during one second, and then you can shoot again. You are shooting at conditional target. They are representing as rectangles. These rectangles can shoot at you. So – don’t wait to much!

Game is already done. But game is done, yes. But in a future – I need to do some decorations. To make a description with text and pictures. Decorate it in website, and release in some platforms.

Enemies can move and shoot. And you are controlling the aim. Game has a little more than 10 levels. And it is made as a game for relax. So this is a game about shooting rectangles in a tier. And squares also.

They are red colored. This is game with retro direction. In style of very old retro systems. You have five lives. And when you complete a level – they will be restored. Don’t forget that game is built that way – that it is easy game. It is tier and shooting the aim. But enemies also can shoot at you, so don’t relax too much!

Elements of menu are made in green colors. And enemies have a red color. For better visual response.

 I have a plan to release all my games, that are made in QBasic or Pascal as a compilation of games for platforms Itchio and Gamejolt. They all will be at one place. And everybody can see what required. And all the descriptions – you will see at my website.

Tier gun

Tier weapon or tier gun – it is a game in genre of action. It is a simulation of shooting with reloads. So, it is good to shoot clearly and sharp. Don’t scatter with shots. Because of, it has a reloading. This is just like something like simulation of possible tank or just shooting with something that is not fast. Aim is moving not so fast. Before your eyes, you have a virtual simulation of battle field. So, it is need to say clear – virtual. All enemies units are tagged as rectangles, without details. Plus to this conditional computer design in a way of green color. Different lines. In a way of old computer machines from 80s.  Sort of monochrome green display.

 

Idea to this game is came from screenshots from some old videogame. Like Battlezone from 80s. But I made a restriction to myself in time and my game is easier and simple and made faster. But, this also gives ideas about next things to do, to upgrade the game idea. More, this game is – tier. That is come from game title.

Here we have a simulation of some weapon, which can move and shoot with some speed. Plus add time for reload. Game, is rather, simple. What kind of weapon it is – it is about to player to decide. Rifle, revolver, shotgun, tank gun, complex war machine, which can shoot with single shots or just something conditional – it is up to player. It is about element of fantasy.


Game has 18 levels. But they are passing by very fast. And they are not difficult. Game has three types of enemies according to theirs visual. It is square, vertical and horizon rectangle. Enemy is appearing. And it can start to aim at you. It is represents as grey rectangle appeared on the enemy. Enemy is aiming for some time, for example, about second, several seconds. 5 seconds. And after it, it makes a shot. And you have five lives – don’t forget about it. Also, enemies are different about theirs behavior. They can move until certain point at the screen, and then stop, or move across the screen. They can have horizontal and vertical type of move.

Game is not hard. It is good for relax, and free time. Or short pause. It is made as a small videogame.
