This is my first release for the Xbox Live Indie Games (done in collaboration with a former colleague – thanks for the graphics Ax!). It is a casual singleplayer shmup that helped me a lot in learning the capabilities of XNA.
It provides the following features:
- 7 environments with 7 boss formations
- 7 different powerups
- 24 different enemy variants
- 5 weapons
- endless fun by random level generation
