      It's good to be the programmer.

          Spent some of today making an effect so when you start it pushes everything out of the way so you don't start on an asteroid.looking for a sound effect and came across David silvera's gothic theme reminded me of gradius so just had to try it out and i land on an asteroid and bingo all the other stuff id been working on came into effect.
          So I'll explain
          Hit an asteroid it releases fuel sometimes
          Also powers up your shield
          To get ammo take out an alien
          Modified the propulsive rockets so you can manoeuvre eight ways
          Still haven't found the sound effect I was looking for
          And still haven't implemented the arrival scene but serendipity gave me the answer I think

                This is looking amazing. Are you going to share it at some point?

                    Of course.
                    I've shared the lead up to this but it ain't half finished yet but at this stage of it could spin it into- I was thinking of making a 'sinistar' like game . Would love to to know if there are any voice assets like that.
                    Ie "beware I live" "run weakling"
                    Cos that would be cool
                    As for sharing
                    Nothing pretty to look at as i didnt use sprites
                    And I've spent countless hours chasing down bugs
                    Cos I used global variables
                    Naughty Naughty boy
                    But have a play
                    Control scheme at top of program
                    Shared it on my I'd
                    Have to look up how to do it the other way and don't know seeing its not finished if it would be passed but pirate away

                      Well that was a slow process I might have submitted twice
                      But have a go any feedback would be nice
                      And by pirate I meant share freely
                      Probably should have used sprites as there is some slow down occasionally and I think it might be more so on the big screen. This is because you should see more real estate on the telly .At least I programmed it that way don't really know as misses watches too much tv ;)

                        Looks and sounds great! I have no idea what I am doing. We won't publish the download code but you can if you want to.

                          Ok ill just look that up
                          On a side note if I share to many programmes does that make it slow to enter the friends section cos mine seems slow

                              Control scheme is at beginning of code
                              So
                              Left joystick controls
                              Left rotate left
                              Right rotate right
                              Also
                              Hold button b and left joystick controls thrusters
                              A fire's ammo
                              X almost does something
                              Thrusters will lock on when you let go of the b button
                              Press b again without using joystick to disable thrusters
                              There are some other control schemes in the code but I settled on that because it was the easiest
                              (Serendipity when I was mucking with different schemes accidentally got the lock effect and run with it) not to sure if the other schemes still work though

                                I've just played this - oh my god it's awesome.

                                I need to get the hang of the controls, it's satisfyingly difficult! Awesome use of the Gothic track by the way - really ramps up the chaos!!

                                Superb work.

                                  Yes it does as soon as I heard it it took me way back the thing was I was looking for those funny mouth noises again for my entrance effect and stummbled upon it then well i had to go back and immediately play it in the game and thankyou
                                  Awesome soundtrack
                                  So any chance of what I said earlier

                                    @xevdev I'd love to expand the voices in Fuze and will certainly do so at some point :)
