It took about a week, but I finally managed to get a demo released! Scrapship, a top-down shooter programmed in Qbasic.
Really looking forward to hearing some feedback!
What are features you'd like to see in future versions?
The demo can be checked out here:

Known issues (so far):
- Bottom of the screen might get cut off at the bottom since it's sized 1080x1080.
- Caps lock on prevents one from switching weapon types.
Haha! Ok, I'll make it harder next time. You are right in saying that you can just dodge the enemies instead of engage them though.
The second weapon has a wider hit area, longer range and does more damage, but fires slower than the primary weapon.
Ideas for this game are constantly changing, but more levels, enemies and weapon types are pretty much a certainty.
Right now I'm working on improving the lasers so you can shoot more than one at a time.
Thanks for playing Malerouille, the feedback is really helpful!
