Well, my first game, of sorts. It's not really finished yet, but I have spent some time on it and I want everyone's opinion on whether it's any good.

Please tell me all you know and feel free to give lots of suggestions. Though I might say now that I do not plan to include any other guns, that is one thing I have settled for.

Well I hope you enjoy what there is of it. Just go to [href]www.mrexplode.tk[/href] and go to the Games section.

Thanks, Joe.

I give your post a 7.

I mean at least give me some abuse for my tripe of a game. Don't just hit me with 7s. It's not fair.

Ps. It's less than 1mb download, and here's a screenshot to get your blood pumping.

I haven't played the game. Indeed, I haven't even downloaded the game. But I certainly like the name. It appeals to my surreal sense of humour. So I give the name 10/10.

yeah tehere was a movie on hitchhikers guide, i hate it, mainly cause i don't find it quite humerous, but also cause it was introduced by an ex girlfriend of whom i despise.

i dont remeber dinosaw, though i dont remeber the old acorn days either, too young is my problem

im hoping to finish the game by feb 14th as im going away for a while then, but i dont know how well itll be done. i want to add more enemy types, and more levels, and some cool music.

im not much of an artist, as you may have seen from the game. a friend of mine drew the george sprite for me but apart from that its all my own poor work. if any of you cool people would be interested in drawing a few small tiles for me, to make it look a bit nicer, then let me know, i'll be delighted.

Congratulations, I've added some rocking beats and changed the way the snake character behaves when it's shot. It makes them a bit harder to beat so there's only one in this demo. But I still haven't fixed the weird way that character kind of curls up if there's more than one. But the first instance of the character isn't affected so it'll have to do with one for now.

It's moving along pretty well. I'd also quite like some ideas on more types of enemies and perhaps powerups, if anyone is interested.

Ps, check out the new music, I wrote it myself, but it's midi so I'm not sure how it'll work on different computers.

Thanks,

Joe
