Was this your plan all along or did the name come first?
If watching the trailer of the game
makes you feel a certain way
I would be very happy if
you would give the game a try

I actually did this because I wanted to address the fairly large amount of slowdown on console. I needed to get rid of 2 of the options (to lower the amount of player bullets), but keeping the weapons the same would've felt underwhelming. So I decided to add a melee thing. I settled on a lance because the name and because I really like the lance laser thing in Omega Fighter, to which this is fairly similar.

A bunch more miscellanies. Want to get a new official preview video out in the next month or two, mostly waiting on a proper stage 1 BG.

I wouldn't either except for it using all of my sprites with the system only having max 128 displayed per frame :P

btw I've been streaming development of this occasionally, like right now. http://twitch.tv/trap0xf

Mostly going to be stage design these days. Either that or polishing stuff and/or making new enemies.

A raspberry pi w/ JAMMA adapter. It's just in an emulator, so not super amazing or anything, pretty low effort thing. :P

240p?

Would be cool to see a video of it on that screen.

No idea, it's not my setup. I don't really want to take a video because the emulator version running on it is quite old and has some unsightly graphical bugs that look like my own bad programming. Will probably share curated pictures when we're playing it though.
