Post Mortem

After a weekish of development, the game is done! I am really proud of this project, it is slightly rough around the edges, but I think it is at a good place to finally publish this full build.

I really wanted to make sure that the relics were fun and kept the core gameplay of constantly moving around the screen, this is why aura didnt make the cut and was replaced with ball. I also reworked knife so it was more interesting than "attack that is above the player". My biggest hope is that I got the visibility of the game right. I wanted to make sure you were able to keep track of everything on screen without being overwhelmed

Behind the Scenes

This is my basic shmup game, I was going to make it more elaborate, having my original design being "Bayonetta Dodonpachi" but after coming across a bug with the lazer I gave up on the project. I wasn't satisfied with this so I decided to cut the stuff that wasn't functional or working and decided to post this online, maybe you can take this and make something better than I did! I am just glad that it is "Finished"

I would like to thank Lazy Devs for his shmup tutorial, highly recommend a watch! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81WM_cjp9fo&list=PLea8cjCua_P3Sfq4XJqNVbd1vsWnh7LZd

Backstory

Wayde finds himself in a bit of a pickle when ghosts start haunting his camp ground! Only using his speed, wits, and a few turtle shells Wayde can stop the ghosts from ruining his nap!

Concept

Scombo is a high score based action game about stringing combos together with shells, the more ghosts you kill with one shell, the better your score!

Rules

The basic rule/objective of the game is to try and hit as many ghosts with one shell as possible. The more ghosts you hit, the higher your score goes!

Controls

The up and down arrow keys move Wayde in the corresponding direction, Z fires the shell!

Behind The Scenes

I made this game on the pocket chip while I was working with my dad around 3 years ago now and honestly looking back on the project, It is one of my favorite projects I have made. All of the code was designed by myself pouring my heart and soul in this project and I hope you have as much fun as I did making it <3!
