What do you think?

Well I think this is the best entry so far. Well done!

Really polished game! Really loved the art, especially the clean-looking menus. The bestiary was a nice touch as well. Great job :)

One issue (that we also ran into last minute in our games!) is that in two-player mode, CTRL + W closes the browser window...so shooting with player two is not really possible.

Testing on HTML5 is interesting...

Wow, nice job on this one! The shooting and explosions and satisfying and fun, and the upgrades are powerful. The coin collecting is a good challenge and the player, pickups, and enemies are all animated really nicely.

The number and quality of enemies is seriously impressive, and the boss is awesome. Tell your son he did an amazing job on the coding!

Awesome game. I love the idea of a father and son teaming up to make this, that's really cool! The game is definitely well made and is super fun to play. The description said to at least make level 7 to see the boss and I'm glad I did, that thing is pretty insane. I was having a difficult time at first getting to level 7 for a couple small reasons. I did find the enemy projectiles easy to miss at times with all the rocks, coins, power ups, etc. flying around. Perhaps making the enemy attacks easier to see would help. Also, I noticed some meteors flying around in the background and I always ended up getting distracted by them thinking they were something I needed to shoot, like the small meteors when you break a big meteor. Honestly, those are minor things and at the end of the day I enjoyed my time with your game. Great job!

Nice job on the art. This feels just like those old arcade Shmups!

This is our entry for the Opera Jam Game. I used this project to make my son (12 years) start learning to program with Game Maker 2. We've built this first version together in 4 days after we saw the announcement and have been polishing it until the deadline.

It's a very addictive shoot'em up with progressive difficulty. Every 2500 points you level up, and the game gets harder. At Level 7 comes the FINAL BOSS, and it's epic, so try to reach it, please!!!

You can use AWSD+space / q keys for player 1 and Arrow keys + keypad . or control for player 2.

Once you finish the first boss, the game gets harder endlessly, increasing the life of every UFO, as you travel faster and faster through space and time. How long will you get???? :)

We hope you enjoy the first "Dad & Son Games" production. #action #multiplayer #shooter



all-ages

We’ll, it seems we didn’t make it even for the top 100 games. Thanks to the organisers for hosting such a nice experience. I really expected to be highlighted somehow to encourage my kid to keep programming, but I guess our game wasn’t good enough.

We made a small update and changed the fire key for player 2 to the del key, so no browser windows are closed because of ctrl+W. ;)

Wew published our almost final version. Now it includes a bestiary, fixes some bugs in the infinite loop and has many difficulty tweaks. The game is Hard! :D

Loading...

Uploaded v.0.9.6 with boss level, new power-up (Shield), and lots of tweaks and enhancements for the difficulty after killing the boss.

We really hope you enjoy it!

ADdiing the final boss to the game!!! :)
