Gyro-phyterNeo

PixelProspector — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 19:22:48 +0000

Gyro-phyterNeo is an abstract arena shooter in which you have to destroy 4 enemy breeding things that are located in the corners of the map. A pretty nice game that could be developed into a bigger game with some more gameplay mechanics. Promising.

Note:
The game is created with the ZGameEditor and is only 46 kB small…!
Also consider to check out the other games from the developer especially the arena shooters Forward Always Forward and lockOn (and it’s sequel lockOn2)

Total Anarchy

PixelProspector — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 20:17:46 +0000

Total Anarchy is an ambitious top down action game in the vein of the classic GTA’s with a future setting. The current Beta Version doesn’t include missions yet so it’s basically some “futuristic sandbox mayhem” as the developer describes it… The game is since 2006 in the works and it’s a pretty impressive effort created with Game Maker.

From the Homepage:
Total Anarchy is a long-term Game Maker game that pushes the software to the limit. Prepare for a rich and expansive GTA-like experience. This game includes over 70 unique vehicles, 12 exciting weapons, 7 fully scripted radio stations, and a vast array of high quality sounds. You get to wreak terror and destruction on a richly detailed, massive city rendered fully in 3D. Every sprite has previously existed as a 3D model so the graphics are rich and coherent.

This is the Beta version. Not included are the story missions and the unlock-able content that comes with them. Please note that cheats have been included in this version to enhance the gameplay experience. You can bring up hints, controls and cheats by pressing F1 in game. There’s still lots to do in the city, you can take part in gang wars, drive taxi fares, take the fight to the police and initiate in rampages. There’s also a tank hidden somewhere in the city!

SpaceGrub

PixelProspector — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 18:43:32 +0000

SpaceGrub is a neat little auto-scrolling platform shooter. Your mission is to reach your tiny space ship in each level (and dont get caught by the moving screen). On your way you have to blast away blocks and enemies and collect boosts to gain speed. If you confront big blocks consider to simply dash through them.
The whole demo can be finished in about 1 minute as you can see from the Gameplay Video. It would be nice if this project would be expanded… maybe with the addition of some more gameplay mechanics and different levels.

Choke on my Groundhog, you Bastard Robots

PixelProspector — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 12:05:15 +0000

Choke on my Groundhog, you Bastard Robots is a fast paced and fun arena shooter in which you accompany yourself through marvelous time travel tactics. Each time you die you travel back in time to assist your former existence. That means that you will confront the enemies with a legion of 10 versions of you…
A very short but great paperstyled shooter experience that offers 4 levels of time traveling. Hopefully the developer will expand this game sometime… Chances are not very high since it’s from August 2008 but well maybe he decides that it would be good to create a deluxe version someday

From the Homepage:
Robots are always bastards. There’s no way around it. We build them and they killed us all. Well almost all, I’m the Earth’s last survivor. But with my time traveling groundhog sidekick I’m going to destroy the robot liberation army and take back Earth.

Control with [WASD or ARROW KEYS]. Aim and Shoot with mouse [LEFT BUTTON]. When you die press [SPACE] to travel back in time.

Note:
Made by Petri Purho most famous for Crayon Physics Deluxe which is based on his previous freeware prototype Crayon Physics.

drone

PixelProspector — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 17:16:03 +0000

drone is an interesting arena shooter with tower defense mechanics and RTS elements. It has minimalist yet unique vector based graphics (that can be enjoyed in HD) and rewarding gameplay.

Enter the arenas and blast all the incoming intruders away in order to get money. By beeing a rich drone you can acquire different weapons, machines and vehicles with ease. It’s your choice how you play the game: Either be a one man army or a commander of axe drones supported by machine turrets and other nice weaponry…
An overall really promising and fun game.

Tip:
Check out the 3 min trailer from the developer to see different aspects of the game.
Furthermore you might also watch the uncut 8 min gameplay video.

From the Homepage:
“drone” is basically a shmup combined with a tower defense combined with a RTS with a bit of driving sim and rpg in there. You kill enemies to collect money which you may then spend on weapons, ammo, armor, buildings, or vehicles. The fun is in how its balanced. It is possible to finish the entire game without using any weapons – just buildings. Likewise, you can finish the entire game with just weapons and no buildings at all.

Features:

10 weapons
10 buildings
3 sets of armor
3 vehicles
16 enemies
5 levels
3 hours of game time minimum.
This game is in HD up to 2800 x 1750
