Star Sled
A downloadable game for Windows
Story:
It is the year 21xx, and a shower of comets threaten to impact the Earth! Even worse, a legion of rogue machines are rampaging to destroy the Earth's defenses. You, an expert Star Sledder, stand as a last line of defense. You must ride your star sled along the Earth's sky rails, and blast away the comets and robots that threaten the Earth's inhabitants!
About:
This project was created for the 2 buttons game jam. In this game, you must effectively use your JUMP and SHOOT actions to evade enemy attacks, and shoot them down before they manage to get passed you. If a comet or robot manages to get by you, the Earth's defenses will take a hit! Will you succeed in saving the Earth from impending doom? Try to get a good score while you're at it!

Haha i love playing this! Simple to play, hard to master. Sadly i didn't get to the end but will certainly try again at some point. You put together a good game with only two buttons, that's pretty cool! Your graphics fit the games theme perfectly. Well done!

Thank you for playing, and recording this! ^_^
>Yeah, 001 is pronounced double-oh-one, like agent 007.
>While switching between full screen and windowed is possible, it requires a certain area of scripting that I unfortunately have yet to understand. Sorry about that.
>The rails actually did start off as being procedurally-generated, however repeated playtests have shown that in certain cases a rail may be generated in a way that made it possible to dodge a bullet/reach a target on time. I had to switch to a more concise pattern in order to ensure fair gameplay.
>There were plans to at least include some Game Over music, but time simply did not allow. Truth be told, Alder was already crunching to get the boss theme in there.
Hey, no problem! Hope the feedback was useful. Definitely understand about the time limitations. :)
