Title: Space balls
Post by: mike_g on January 04, 2007
Just a little old school shoot em up I made. Never got around to completely finishing it, but it has some nice fetures. Get it Here (http://www40.brinkster.com/mikegrundel/Space%20Balls.htm)

Looks like a lot of work has gone into that Mike :) Btw on my first try I failed. I couldn't even get onto the hi score table. Nice game.

Hi Mike_g,

Thats a really great game - loads of fun, very addictive.
One thing is very slow though: me. Can you fix that in the next release please?

Yeah um the first levels actually pretty hard, the seconds probably easier. I spent about two solid weeks making the game, then went off to do something else. I might finish it off some day and improove on some of the crude coding. I'm just so lazy when it comes to working on old things. 

@taj: I am not sure why the slowness is happening. My computer is quite low spec but it runs fine, yet on the computers in my college it ran real jerky and they are like twice as fast. But yeah if I can get back to working on this its something I will try and fix.

I think the slowdown is due to the fact that I am nearly 40.
If you *can* fix this in the next release I'll be very impressed.

Lol, Youre obviously not quite as slow as me  ;D I Think I overdid it a bit on new year, managed to get myself a stinking cold. Been a bit dazed and confused the last couple of days.

Seem's like this one should be downloaded!
Might check it out when my internet resets the download counter (22nd) - already 400Mb over :(
