Shoot-a Story Gets Scary for Halloween


With Halloween set to scare up the place at the end of the month, it’s time for the text-based shoot-em up Shoot-a Story to get with the sprint of the season via a new update.

This update brings with it three horror-themed fonts and five new levels from the realm of horror writing, each of which with their own high score leaderboard. The five new levels are:

  • Dracula - “The castle is on the very edge…”

  • Frankenstein - “I behold the wretch -“

  • The Raven - Opening three stanza

  • The War of the Worlds - Opening paragraph

  • Dorian Gray - “We are punished for our refusals.”

The Halloween update for Shoot-a Story is live now!

About Shoot-a Story

In Shoot-a Story, everything is made up of text, including the enemies, the bullets and the ship you control. The game itself plays like a wave-based Space Invaders, with the aim being to destroy the waves of words and get as high a score as possible before the words defeat you. Alongside ten levels, the ability to create custom levels and six fonts to play in, the game also features controller support and interactive menus to destroy to your heart’s content.

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

I mostly build 3D First Person Shooter game mechanics in Unity, and in this I'm just showing C4 mechanics I made for a little side project I am working on! :)

Explosive domino effect

Some time ago, we posted a screenshot of the Mexico level. A curiosity about it is that, like some other scenarios of the game, it was inspired by a real landscape, The Basaltic Prisms of Santa María Regla. It is one of the natural wonders of the country!

Double Rainbow!!!

Hello my space friends! Now I added a space background to the ship. I love that space look but I still feel like stuff is missing. The lighting on the ship needs some improvements I think. Please tell me your opinion!
