Big Bertha vs alien robots! by Volatile Dove
Big Bertha vs alien robots! is a 2-players cooperative game. One player controls a cannon, with up and down commands, and the other controls a character with a hosepipe, to put water on burning mechanisms. They must resist against alien robots!
[edit 6 hours before the end: added music and minor windowing stuff]
- Music is from: http://opengameart.org/content/battle-theme-a
- Sounds are from: freesound.org
- The graphics are from me :)
- The code is all from me, in C++ :) (this is using a modified version of my "Loving Cube Engine" source code)
Also available on itch.io: http://volatile-dove.itch.io/big-bertha-vs-alien-robots
Edit 2015-04-24: The game is now available on the Windows 8 Store! http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/fr-fr/app/big-bertha-vs-alien-robots/e716f335-36e8-4dd7-a8a2-115f9c323688 It uses DirectX instead of OpenGL, so if you ever have a problem with the normal (=OpenGL) version, and have Windows 8, check out this one. The features did not change.
Edit 2015-04-26: Fixes a bug about the game speed when the framerate is lower than 60. To guarantee that no feature was added, you can even still check out the previous version at http://volatiledove.com/BigBerthaVsAlienRobots/BigBerthaVsAlienRobots.old.zip
(Note: The Windows 8 Store version is not concerned by this problem)

There's a large circle on the screen making it impossible to play. Here's a screenshot; http://pasteboard.co/2Ig3Uo1c.png

Interesting approach to make a game. I mostly enjoyed the music and the graphics! :) Unfortunately, however, I didn't have a friend to play this with me. :(

I set up another controller to automate just so I could play this game... I wish there was a single player mode :(
