I do plan and making this into my own, and adding my own ideas into it, this was just a starting point.

Needs considerable work...

I'll admit, the graphics and sound effects were....interesting. But not neccessarily in a good way. It almost sounded like a child was making those explosion noises and the graphics appeared as though the game was drawn on a paper napkin from McDonalds. As for the scoring system, it was ok. However, your programming for it needs revision. I know I missed the enemies with most of my shots, but I got full points for accuracy. Also, "Shoot!?" Really?

If you are going to expand one this, please take the reviews of your original into consideration.

Sadly, I am no graphics designer, and I highly doubt I ever will be, I am not good enough.

I will try to update graphics/sounds as I go along, but I am more concerned with the actual game play itself.

I forgot to take out the accuracy, but I'll leave it in for now anyways, it'll save me time in the future.

I am doing what I can to add to it, with the time I have, and I hope you will look, and enjoy the new version.

my score 42800 it cool

hmm

its a good game, no doubt
but the least you could have done was put in some more effort, and changed
the graphics...

MasashiOrika responds:

I am no graphics designer, so that is extremely difficult for me.

I am trying to find someone to redo them, considering I cannot do it myself.
I cannot draw/design/etc.

Ehhh

I agree that this idea wasnt original and that it was a remake. Also the enimies came to quickly, not relly giving you the chance to understand the controls. Other than, it was fun.

Good try.

It is obvious that this is made using the Shootorials and contains no original graphics, but it works and you added a point bonus for accuracy. Even though it doesn't work, good idea.
