Hello everyone,
My name is Andrés, I'm an indie game developer (better known as @super16bits), and in the next articles I will write a little about my game, starexcess, for you. Hope you like it.
Name: Starexcess
Genre: SHMUP
Platform: WIN10, MAC(soon), LINUX(soon)
ART: @super16bits, CODE: @super16bits, MUSIC: @super16bits
I developed all the code, created the art, music, etc... all by myself. It took about 4 long years, and cost a lot of blood sweat and tears, but finally I'm here telling everyone that starexcess is ready for release.
Throughout this period, I learned more, I improved more, and today I can say that this is a game I'd like to play(and I've been really enjoying playing it these last few weeks).
The initial idea was to develop a nice SHMUP with levels that would enhance player's ability rather than wave memorization. To maintain a nice gameplay, each level has its own set of waves, but which waves will appear is chosen randomly.
At the end of each level, a BOSS waits to test players' skill.
Finally, the art inspiration came from Japanese sci-fi anime from the 80's and 90's, predominantly white fighter-shaped ships and more futuristic enemies.
If you liked it, please follow me on twitter and facebook for more news. Made from one player to other players.
Best wishes to all of you.
