Red Revenge by Skyshifter
Meh 1st LD entry.
You play as a villain that was the best, until one day another villain destroyed the moon and spread influence to your henchman until you were the only one left.
The game starts with you regaining your pride by destroying the planet Magnus(the other villains HQ) to defeat him and become the ultimate villain of the universe.
Known Bugs:
-If your resources hit 5 and there's a crate touching you, the crate disappears and you do not gain any resource
-Plasma batteries, when activated, will consume all instead of just one
-Drones stack if left too long and ista-kills if touches you
-This is a Game Maker game, so it does not work on anything other than Windows, but WinE would work(no sound though)
(Note: The objective of the game is to collect enough resources to craft an item at the RIGHT SIDE of the level to advance to the next stage)

But as you asked about my game, "Earth Destroyer", what does the Bonus Level do.. I just answered your question on my own game page, please take a look there :)
I found the game to be very enjoyable. It does have its share of troubles though... the resources stuff is kinda confusing in the beginning, and at first I thought I was supposed to just hang around and kill stuff. I even thought my grenades weren't working 'til I figured out I was supposed to produce them :)
You could have done a crosshair instead of using the default system mouse pointer for the player's aim.
But all in all, the game is pretty good indeed. I did like it a lot.
- I found it confusing which weapon I was actually shooting with. An overlay text "Plasma Rifle" or something would've been nice.
- I really liked the nice explanation screens, I've been missing those with some other games.
- Those missiles are just mean, luckily you can shoot them.
- I'm not a fan of these kind of games, but I can't blaim you for that :P
I think you should keep going, this game has potential (for people other than me who actually like these kinds of games :P) I think it mostly needs just that bit more spit'n'polish.
I guess it isnt quite clear though
The music is all kinds of awesome, though. :)
BTW i made it during the LD.
