Typhoon Force: Storm Fighter

This a demo of the first game I've ever made! Feedback is very welcome :) It is now open source so feel free to have a look at the code!

Here's what's new in version 0.0.5 (17th February 2021)

• new member in the team! please welcome Reezer who will join to help with programming
• added a second level
• added a boss placeholder at the end of level 1 and 2
• added a healthbar for the boss
• HUD improvements
• added message box system (not yet used)
• added an inter-level screen that displays the score until now
• added an end-game screen that displays the final score once the game has been beaten
• the max score is now about 30'000 points

Typhoon Force: Storm Fighter is a shoot'em up where you pilot a spaceship and navigate your way through the end of the game by fighting swarms of enemies.

So far the game only features 4 enemies and has two short levels as it is mostly a demo (the maximum score is 30900 for about a minute of gameplay), so that I can get some feedback, but development is active so if you come back next week (or even tomorrow) there  will likely be more content. The goal is to make a game with 3 levels that have a lifespan each of about 5 minutes, for a total of 15 minutes. The final game will be released for free.

The keyboard controls  are included in the splash screen, but you can also use a Gamepad:

Keyboard / Gamepad (XBox button names)

•  Start the game / Pause : Space / Start
• Move : Arrow keys / D-Pad
• Fire : X / A
• Move slowly : Hold Left shift / LB
• Toggle debug overlay : F12 / [only on keyboard]
• Reset game in debug : R / [only on keyboard]
