Enaxius by Orange

made by Orange for LD30 (COMPO)

-Made in GM studio Pro. The plan was to also make an android version however my phone broke the night of the dare... So that didn't happen. Anywho I hope you all enjoy this short SHMUP, it's VERY short but there are multiple difficulties + one unlockable difficulty.

*EDIT Update 1.3_1 Fixed a typo on the tittle screen.

Actually a pretty fun little shooter! For what it's worth, "Medium" is misspelled on the title screen. :) Good job!

Congrats on your game! This is a fun little space shooter that would be greatly improved with a scoring system, backing audio tracks and some explosion effects for the player's ship. I really liked the graphics and the simple powerup system.

Cool shootemup! I've always admired Galaga, so I appreciate this style. Didn't get very far, but the graphics are cool and controls are simple. Enemy types are interesting, too. Could use a little music, I think. Not sure if all the attack waves are beatable without a lot more practice, but I think you've done a nice job all around.

Short but pretty sweet! Very solid SHMUP mechanics, and a great detail in the beginning showing the rest of the fleet blowing up.

The addition of music would have made this entry even better. If you are not into composing, I suggest you look into automatic music generation for future LDs! :-)

Great game. I wish it had some music. The boss fight was challenging and had quite interesting patterns. Also I like how boss appears, it was kind of scary.

Solid gameplay and great graphics. What sound effects are there are good but more audio would have been nice. Good job!

Was only able to complete it on medium, the pattern before the boss is just too damn tough :P. Enjoyable as it is, but some music would have gone a long way. I liked the fact that you could choose which upgrade you want.
