You beat the shit out of me on that contest, but that was because Rav RallyX really sucked ass.

I really should go back and polish this off. I could do quite a bit more to it.

What's the point?! Polishing poop doesn't make it any more attractive.

Not bad. That paper-clip should have been a big boss as opposed to a bunch of little ones. While killing it multiple times would have been satisfying, once after a challenge would have been better, but that's just a gameplay issue and they can be easily dealt with or ignored.

However, you'll notice that for the anti-terrorism contest my entry won as it was the sole entry. :)

SO IN YOUR FACE STEVE

The game is pretty good as a whole. The programming is good, and the text looks quite cool. However, the graphics could use some work. In particular, the spaceship is very grainy and looks like it has been scaled up. Also, the targets that you're shooting at are a bit lackluster (i.e. the squares on level 1... ooh... a square... creative).

Gr8 game fun to play.
I am also thinking to make a space shooter game so i was searching for similar games made so far.

The games AI is impresive.
Can mention some details about the AI of the game ?
I played first 2 levels few times and those boxes appear to move in a fixed path.
Have you created a sort of graph or a simple path to be followed by these boxes ?
If am wrong can you please provide some information on how to implement a similar thing ?
