Downloaded the game right now and I'm loving it!
MetalHell is a clockworkpunk themed Bullet hell, "danmaku", game. Fight against mechanical insects from hell - in space!
Gameplay
The player dies of one hit. Enemies drop tech-powerups (increases canon strength), more bombs. Timebombs slow downs time for everything in area, use either defensivly to slow down incomming bullets of slow down boss. Gravity bomb sucks in enemy bullets and uses them against them. Killing enemies increases your score multiplier.
Right now there is only two levels and a bossrun.
Controls
Arrow keys Movee
Z Fire
X Gravity bomb
Shift Focus Mode
Shift+x Time bomb
Engine
The engine is custom made using C++ and SFML. It is highly customizeable and one can create own levels, just place them in /levels/ and append to /levels/levels.txt. One can even define own enemies and AI. See the other .lvl files for examples.
