-SPAM GREEN FLAG FOR BEST EXPERIENCE- Welcome to Cosmic Ambush! The game where aliens, once again, have a vendetta against you! ================First Note=================== -Hey guys! This is a game a LONG time in the making. Obviously, this will have a lot of bugs, since I wanted to finish it as fast as soon as I can, since I have a problem actually finishing the games because I don't know if it's ready for the public yet. That was actually why there was a six-month gap between my games. I hope you enjoy! =================Backstory================= It is in The Near Future™ and you are flying your spaceship all across space! But then, you were put in an alien ambush! Alien spaceships came from every direction and they blew up your way to escape! Luckily your main engines and weapons still work. Can you survive and fight against the alien onslaught? ================Instructions================= -Press the arrow keys or WAD to move. -Press Space to shoot. -Press 1 and 2 to switch the weapons from a Cannon to Rapid Fire. -Avoid and destroy the aliens! ==================Credits=================== -I used sound effects from YouTube and the stuff you are provided in the editor. -Despite still being an original well-built (kinda) game, I still want to credit @AwesomeGuy12321 for making the cool game -SPACESHIP- (here's the link: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/479182869) . It is a really cool game that actually inspired this game! He also made a game that got featured, Drone, which is in his game's description. -I used Lost Sky's song "Dreams" for the background music. ====================Bugs================== -Please note that these bugs aren't game breaking, they are just minor annoyances and sometimes most of them can be solved just by, again, spamming the green flag. -If you click the green flag once, the death sound starts even though you never start playing yet. -After you die, you hear ominous "taps". -In the game, you have to spam-click the player customization button to change your character. And after your first run (what I call your game time before you die) when you click that button it goes on the fritz switching to different characters. -When you switch to the old background, the stars that were showing when you make the switch still stay for a bit until deleting (and even that was because I coded it in for the new background). Yet another minor annoyance I have yet to fix. ==============Planned Features=============== -More character types. || Mainly for aesthetic. -Different enemy types. || Just to give the game some complexity. -More weapon types. || Why not? -Player upgrades. || HECK YEAH!!!!!!! -A timer and global highscore. || It would be nice to add a bit of competition to the game for other players across the world. ===============Game History================= -7/13/21 || v.1: The game is finally released! :D -7/16/21 || v.2: I added a cool new player weapon to the cool game: missiles! Missiles are basically faster rocket-shaped bullets which actually come in pairs! I also made the bullets change depending on your weapon type. -7/18/21 || v.3: For version 3, I fixed a tiny inconvenience in the game's code where, no matter the weapon type, your bullets will always come as missiles I just had to add two blocks (combined as one) to fix this problem. I also added a new skin, Retro! -8/25/21 || v.4: I finally gave the enemies the power to shoot! They will still try to kamikaze you, but they will still try to shoot you! :) -10/13/21 || v.5: Hey, it's been a while (roughly 2 months) since I worked on the game. I fixed the format in this text box since just recently I got a new computer! I used to have a crummy Chromebook that was UNHOLY slow, and I got a sick new MacBook Pro! Of course, this made the formatting glitch, so I did my best to correct it. -10/16/21 || v.6: I decided to add a new background, because the old one kinda looked bad. So I added a new one! But just in case you liked the old background, I added an option to change it. -7/5/22 || v.7: It's been a while since I worked on this. I didn't know what to add, but since I just realized this game's 1 year anniversary is almost here, I figured I should make a few big changes only on that date, so I just cleaned up some of the code and modified the thumbnail.
