Max VS Mars is a 2D/3D polygonal side-scroller / platformer hybrid featuring hand drawn characters and a chiptune soundtrack. Men from Mars have landed on earth, and as Max, it's your job to beat them back into space!
Not that I've received much feedback from the previous demo, but I felt it looked a bit bland honestly. I'm happy with the gameplay, but the graphics and enemies seemed a bit dull. So in the mean time, I've been working on enhancing those two bits.
I've added real time lighting, real time shadows, normal mapping, bloom and light scattering. I think it's looking pretty awesome. I've also finished some great new music to compliment the new first level.

So how hard is too hard? I don't want to be responsible for any controllers permanently attached to your monitor!
