This is high damage but slows your movement.<br /> X Button - Fires your spread shot. This has a wide range and fast movement speed.<br /> Cancels - Pressing both fire buttons together will perform a bullet cancel however this will cost one full meter, these are essential for high scores.</p> <h2>Pickups</h2> <p>Capsules - These will score a small amount of points and fill your cancel meter.<br /> Chips - These spawn from canceled bullets and give lots of points. </p> <p>I intend to move on to create a more advanced and fleshed out Shmup in the future, so keep your eyes peeled.<br /> Have fun and please post feedback and high scores in the comments! </p> https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=141773 https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=141773 Tue, 16 Apr 2024 18:46:17 UTC
