A vertical scrolling space ship game. Use LEFT and RIGHT arrows to move and avoid the enemy ships. Use SPACE to fire your plasma cannons and blow them up. There IS and ending to the game if you survive for about 4 minutes.
I got a lot of help on this. Scratch's own tutorial on Shooter Game Directions was a big help in getting started. http://scratched.media.mit.edu/sites/default/files/Shooter%20Game%20Directions.pdf Robobob's random costume generator helped with getting the enemy's to to look random. http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/180004/ SPECIAL THANKS to CrystalStar- on the Discussion Board for helping me get the ship to change costumes when moving to create a tilting/strafing appearance.
